I am hoping someone can help me on this one. I have googled this to death to no avail. I used to have Object Explorer docked on the left hand side of my management studio and then the query screen would come up beside of it. Now the Object Explorer has disappeared and I cannot get it to dock back in its original place. Hopefully someone can help me on this. Thanks.

You should be able to press F8 on the keyboard while in SQL Server Management Studio. This should show you the Object Explorer window.

On the title bar for object explorer, you should see 3 icons to the right. The first is a triangle pointing down, then a pin, and an X. Click the triangle pointing down and select dockable.

This should help. Let me know.
