How to: Save Your Work in Table Designer
You can save changes to tables that are open in Table Designer.
Note
Your computer might show different names or locations for some of the Visual Studio user interface elements in the following instructions. The Visual Studio edition that you have and the settings that you use determine these elements. For more information, see Visual Studio Settings.
To save a table
Click anywhere in the Table Designer.
From the File menu, choose Save tablename.
In the Save dialog box, click Yes to update the database.
Note
If the changes you are saving cause no changes to other tables, you won't see this dialog.
Note
The list of tables in the Save dialog box may include tables other than the one you modified. For example, if you change the data type of a column that participates in a relationship with another table, both tables will be included in this list.
Note
To save changes to all open items, such as tables, views, stored procedures, from the File menu choose Save All.
