I have to use Sql Server Management Studio 2008 R2. When I open a new-query tab it opens to the LEFT of the other tabs and pushes all open tabs to the right (thus changing their position every time I open a new tab). This is extremely frustrating, I don't really understand this design choice.
How can I make SSMS 2008 R2 tabs behave "normally" (open new tabs to the right, so existing tabs stay stationary)?
Lemurr has answered it, but just so that any one using SSMS 2016 (April Preview) can find it. Microsoft has now moved this from
Tools > Options > Environment > Documents > Insert documents to the right of existing tabs
to
Tools > Options > Environment > Tabs and Windows > Insert new tabs to the right of existing tabs.
For SSMS 18, its under Environment > Tabs And Windows.
