Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place to post this question...

I have just uninstalled and re-installed SQL SERVER 2008 R2 advanced services and management studio is misbehaving. As soon as i click on New Query i get the following error: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". When I click the New Query button again the query pane opens but the execute button and database selection drop-down are greyed out. Can anyone please help?

Try installing SP2 for SQL Server 2008 R2 and then the latest hotfix. Service packs and hotfixes are for the client tools too.
