2005 query designer yellow/green in marginWhen I type stuff in SQL query designer, there is a (usually) yellow mark
(thin yellow vertical line) to the left of each line that I type. Sometimes this line is green or occasionally it's not there (or it's white). Where is the meaning and purpose of this documented? Also, what is it? (The answer to the first question removes the need to answer the second question) :-) Thanks. David Walker Seems like the colors indicates the modifications done in a file.
No color = no modification. Yellow = modification, not saved. Green = modification, saved. -- Show quoteTibor Karaszi, SQL Server MVP http://www.karaszi.com/sqlserver/default.asp http://www.solidqualitylearning.com/ "DWalker" <n***@none.com> wrote in message news:O45V8IAkGHA.4588@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > When I type stuff in SQL query designer, there is a (usually) yellow mark > (thin yellow vertical line) to the left of each line that I type. > Sometimes this line is green or occasionally it's not there (or it's > white). > > Where is the meaning and purpose of this documented? > > Also, what is it?

I recommend that you pick a topic such as the "Code and Text Editor" topic, click the Send Feedback link and tell the writer that you'd like to see the colors that appear in the margins documented. Your feedback automatically generates a doc bug and is assigned to the writer that owns that topic/area.

Trust Gail on the usefulness of giving feedback through Books Online. However, I thought I'd point out where you can find a bit more, but not quite from the documentation. In Management Studio's Tools|Options dialog you can change the color options for "Track changes before save" and "Track changes after save", and it will change these colors. It's a little more fun this way than just guessing, but I agree that the documentation should describe all the options and features.
