I just upgraded my SSMS to 2008 R2. I’m missing the option to select the top 1000 rows from a table, like this:

Mine looks like this:

I know how to change the number of rows that are displayed, but the options aren’t there at all. I saw that someone submitted a bug for this a few years ago, but there was no workaround, and I’m not sure what to do. Any ideas?

EDIT – Azure Problem?

I just used SSMS to open my local SQL Server, and I get the option to select the top 100 rows. But in my other SSMS instance, the one that is connected to my Azure DB, I don’t see it. Is it possibly an Azure limitation?

    Based on this answer, I believe it is a limitation of SQL Azure. I have not been able to find any additional information that would allow you to work around the issue.
