Is there any way to:

1. Show the column description property in the table definition grid.

2. Print the Column Name, Data Type, Allow Nulls, and Description to the printer.

3. Show the column description in the Database Table, Table View

Hi,

Where did you want to show this information? To better understand your issue, could you please clarify it in detail?

It seems this post is the duplicated one on http://forums.asp.net/t/1488032.aspx. We will focus on that one. 

Thanks. 

In the server exporer the default view is shown below.  I would like to add the Description Property to the grid.

While there is a way of selecting custom within Tools-->Options--->Database tools-->Table and Database designers, there is no way of selecting the columns to appear as custom.

However Database diagrams are available within the server explorer and these can be customised from SSMS but not apparently from within VS2008 (seems to be a missing feature)
