How to alter SQL in “Edit Top 200 Rows” in SSMS 2008

Question

In SQL Server 2008 Management Studio, when I right click on a database table and choose \"Select Top 100 Rows\", I can then e.g. easily add a \"ORDER BY \"

Similar to David Hall's response, if you are a non-coder, it may be easiest to right-click within results, then choose Pane > Criteria. This allows you to adjust sort, add filters, etc... without adjusting SQL code.
