I have a database that I am viewing with SQL Server Management Studio 2008

I have a database that I am viewing with SQL Server Management Studio 2008.

I right-click on the table and choose edit top 200 rows.

I tab over to my “SerializedXML” varchar(max) field that has 100s of lines of data in it but I am only able to move back and forth in it with my cursor in a tiny one-line textbox.

I remember there being no alternative to this back in SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager, but thought it might have changed by now.

Is there any way I can view/edit this field in a mutli-line textbox?
