This is a quick post but it might be an item you can add to your Today I Learned list  :-)

Let's say you get to a SSMS query window and you see the following



You can tell it ran really fast and you can tell that 26080 rows were affected.  Can you tell when it started and when it finished?

Yes, you can!!!

Hit the F4 button or select View-->Properties Window from the menu bar

Here is what I see



As you can see there are a bunch of properties about the query

For example

Start time: 7/13/2017 9:58:01 AM
Finish time: 7/13/2017 9:58:02 AM
Elapsed time: 00:00:00.766

There you have it, a quick and easy way to tell when something ran in your query windows
