Restoring SQL Server Database simple summary steps

I always tend to forget the order of this. A short summary for restoring a Sql server  .bak file:

1. Restore database. (Run Sql Server Manager as admin, make sure you window user have access rights to appropiate folders etc).

2. Delete the accompanied database user that is on the “database”. (user should be on database server scope not on the database)

3. If there isn’t already a user on the database server user level, create one, and set the user mapping for user -> database owner of -> newly restored db.

How to: View and Edit Code by Using Peek Definition (Alt+F12)

Visual Studio 2013

You can use the Peek Definition command to view and edit code without switching away from the code that you’re writing. Peek Definition and Go To Definition show the same information, but Peek Definition shows it in a pop-up window, and Go To Definition shows the code in a separate code window. Go To Definition causes your context (that is, the active code window, current line, and cursor position) to switch to the definition code window. By using Peek Definition, you can view and edit the definition and move around inside the definition file while keeping your place in the original code file.
