Hey SSMS friends - re-sharing this link to a feedback item I created about the compatibility level list that appears on the options tab in the database properties dialog.
I want to hear (in a constructive manner :) what you think!

The #BitsBuddies haven't been let in on the theme, whatever it will be #SQLBits2025 will be an amazing event.
I'm sure the guess where questions will be coming soon, our best guess is not London.
Is it that time again... already?

With many non tech sessions at #SQLBits2024, don't miss an opportunity to learn from an inspirational leader
I'm sure this session can help you to be the manager in IT you always wanted
