Question

How can I change the CommandTimeout in SQL Management Studio?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Changing Command Execute Timeout in Management Studio:

Click on Tools -> Options

Select Query Execution from tree on left side and enter command timeout in "Execute Timeout" control.

Changing Command Timeout in Server:

In the object browser tree right click on the server which give you timeout and select "Properties" from context menu.

Now in "Server Properties -....." dialog click on "Connections" page in "Select a Page" list (on left side). On the right side you will get property 

Remote query timeout (in seconds, 0 = no timeout):
[up/down control]

you can set the value in up/down control.

OTHER TIPS

If you are getting a timeout while on the table designer, change the "Transaction time-out after" value under Tools --> Options --> Designers --> Table and Database Designers

This will get rid of this message: "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding."

Right click in the query pane, select Query Options... and in the Execution->General section (the default when you first open it) there is an Execution time-out setting.
