SQL Server Query Shortcuts

Sometime back I detailed the command to describe the details a database table for Microsoft SQL Server. To detail the a given database table you can use the sp_help command. If you don’t want to type sp_help every time you want to see the structure of a table you can use a query shortcut. Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express has a series of shortcuts, available under the Options | Options menu. You can add custom query shortcuts. The shortcut for sp_help is Alt + F1. Just select a table name and hit Alt + F1 to see the table details. If no table is selected you will get details on all the available tables.
