SQL Server Management Studio equivalent for CTR+L keyboard Shortcut from Visual Studio

Question

I have not been able to find the equivalent shortcut key to Ctrl+L used in Visual Studio (to cut and copy a line) in SQL Server 2005/2008. I find Ctrl+L to be very handy.

Does anyone know a keyboard shortcut to cut and copy a line in SQL Server Management Studio?

Answer 1

Just hit ctrl+c with no text selected - this copies the current line; likewise ctrl+x with no text selected cuts the current line.

Answer 2

This is a partial solution.

In 2008 SSMS you can right click the toolbar. Choose customize then in the "Edit" section drag the "Line Cut" item up to the Edit menu.

.

Then pressing Alt + E followed by Alt + L works.

But I couldn't figure out how to then map that to the single Ctrl + L combination. This is by default mapped to "Show Estimated Execution Plan" and I didn't find a way to change that.
