I have the following query (sample)
SELECT *
FROM Table_1 1 INNER JOIN
Table_2 2 ON 1.C1 = 2.C1 INNER JOIN
Table_3 3 ON 2.C2 = 3.C2 INNER JOIN
Table_4 4 ON 3.C3 = 4.C3
The output is of 10+ columns.
When I hover over * (after “SELECT”) I get a tooltip with all different column names from those 4 tables.
Is there a way to easily switch from * to those column names instead of typing each one of them after SELECT?
Thank you
I’m assuming you’re working in Management Studio. If so, go to the Object Explorer and open up your Table. Left click on the Columns folder and drag it to your query window. All the columns for that table will be listed.
