The week before Christmas I attended DevelopMentor's "Guerilla SQL Server 2005 for Developers" training on the Microsoft Campus in Redmond. This was my first trip to Redmond after having joined the company 3 years ago and it was really nice to see "the temple". *g

Regarding the training: The trainers Bob Beauchemin, Niels Berglund and Dan Sullivan did an excellent job in transferring their knowledge about Yukon to the 60 attendees. What was really cool about the training being on MS campus was that many PMs from the different SQL groups came to the conference center and offered Q&As and feedback sessions.

During the training we talked about ways to browse through the assemblies stored in a SQL database and retrieve them with SELECT statements. This inspired me to create a Reflector addin that connects to a SQL instance, lists the databases and the assemblies contained. By clicking the "Load assemblies" button you can open them in .NET Reflector without the need to first connect to the SQL Server manually, dump the assembly, copy the file to the dev machine, etc...

You can download the SQL2005 Browser tool here. Let me know, if you find it useful or have ideas how to improve it.
