Create folders in Object Explorer - wish...

Here's one thing that I'd like to see come out in some version of the SQL Server Management Studio...

The ability to create folders under the database node so that databases can be grouped on one server.

We have over 100 databases on our development server and these are created by a range of consultants and developers and even support staff as needed.

Being able to group the databases by product, etc would be a nice touch since we have client databases that don't fit naming conventions etc.

Multiple instances are another way around this but are expensive and resource hungry - we develop and support models, not use them for transactions too much.

Yes there are 'better' ways such as setting security correctly but we are too busy working and not maintaining.

Folders or database groups would be a nice touch.

Cheers

I encourage you to offer the suggestion here, and to encourage others so inclined to 'vote' for it. (Enhancement suggestions run somewhat like a popularity contest.
