Hi, we can generate drop-down list on the tables by writing sql query at "Access". I was wondering whether or not the same thing can be done for SQL Server?
With all respects...

Do you mean intellisense support when you are writing queries? If it is, there is some intellisense support built into SQL Server Management Studio. There are third party products that provide more enhanced functionality. Redgate, Softtree, SSMS Toolpack etc.

Hi, thank you for answering but I'm sorry I couldn't explain my question nicely.

The thing that I tried to mean is like at the link below.

Where are you trying to create the dropdown list?

If it is in SQL Server Management studio, there is no feature that will allow you to do that.
If you are trying to do this in SQL Reporting Services, you can accomplish that by setting the list of values or getting the list of values from a query.

Actually I don't know whether this property is exist in the SQL Server or not.
If there was exist this kind of property, it would be good for me. Unfortunately it wouldn't.
This property is helpful for me to understand the relations whether true or not between the tables.

Thanks for answering.
