I am using this in SSMS R2 and it works perfectly when I right click and select change connection and if I connect via the upper left connect drop down. This is VERY useful. Production bar is red for me, my localhost server is green, and I have a key to the other server’s colors posted on my wall until I learn them.

The reason I ask is because my login is always too long and I need to mouse over it to see my SPID (a real pain!).

https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/361832/update-status-bar-colour-when-changing-connections

If you have a query window open under a certain connection, then change that windows connection (i.e. right click, disconnect, connect), then the color from the first connection will remain in the status bar.

Anyone that cares enough about the proper implementation of what could be a great and helpful feature should consider going to this website and voting “Yes” to bump up its priority.

so a Production group can be RED while Development group can be GREEN

It’ll be PINK if you try to run multi-server script

Sometimes I find it doesn’t store the colour settings all the time…. didn’t bother to figure out why

No it is not possible to change the bar colors in SQL Server 2005 but only in SQL Server 2008.

Regards,
Pinal

Is it possible in SQL Server 2005?
