I’ve recently migrated a couple of SQL 2008 databases to Azure using the 3.7 Migration Wizard from CodePlex.
After completing the migration, everything works well, except that I don’t have all the “normal” right click menu items in Management Studio – e.g. I don’t have “Design”, “Select Top 1000”, etc
I think the reason that these items is missing is because the logged in user (my SQL Azure admin) is not a user of the migrated database – or maybe its something else? If I just create a database and a table inside SQL Azure then I do seem to have these menus.
Is there a way to get these right-click menu items back on the migrated database?
I hate to say it, but that’s not a feature of a database migrated to SQL Azure, that’s a feature of all SQL Azure Databases. Some options in in SQL Management Studio just aren’t available. For example right click on a stored procedure -> Script Stored Procedure To -> Alter is disabled for some unknown reason.
