I just installed SQL Server Express 2008 because of intellisense feature. It worked at first but than it stopped working. Looking for the option to check and later consultin
Don't think of it so much that they disabled intellisense in SQL Server 2005 so much as that SQL Server 2005 wasn't built with intellisense support in mind; there is code in the SQL Server 2008 database engine that supports the intellisense feature in Management Studio 2008.
Yes, I know it seemed to work in the later CTP previews, but some googling (and DilbertDave's link) reveals that there were a number of ways in which the CTP behavior was broken.
