Shortcut For QA

When I open QA on my development machine, I almost always go to the same db.
Is it possible to create a shortcut for QA which tells it to go to that db,
and also provides the login and password? Thanks,

Hi Neil,

You can create a shortcut to isqlw.exe (Query Analyzer) like:
isqlw.exe -S myserver -d mydatabase -U username -P password

For more details, check out
