SSMS 2008 Solution Does Not Remember Passwords

Has anyone been able to get SSMS 2008 remember passwords for individual
queries contained in a Solution?

When I open a query (double click) in the Solution Explorer, a connection
dialog pops up with the correct connection but without the password and the
"Remember Password" unchecked.

This is a reported (by Aaron

problem. Obviously, i's not been fixed in the RTM.

Thanks. It's good to know that the "higher ups" know about the problem.

Hope there is a fix for this and other annoyances soon...

It can get quite annoying having to:

1. select a different connection, then...
2. select the correct connection to get the password to "fill in".

Or

1. re-enter the password from memory. This can be difficult as all of my
servers have passwords which are not subject to easy memorization.
