Understanding SQL Database

I have recently inherited a application that has a MS SQL backend to it. I am new to SQL, is there any friendly view in SQL that will allow me to look at the tables contents and columns? There are about 50 tables and i didnt know if MS SQL had an easy way to view it and understand it, to see what kind of information is in each table. Or if anyone with some experience with MS SQL has had this similar situation, any help is greatly appreciated. I am going to continue to try and solve the problem on my own and I will post if i do.
Thanks a lot
Drew

Please install MS SQL.
If you are new to MS SQL, there are basically three things that will help you most:

1. Books Online:
Start--Programs--Microsoft SQL Server--Books Online
You can find all the help files here.

2. Enterprise Manager:
Start--Programs--Microsoft SQL Server--Enterprise Manager
You can see all databases, tables of databases, design and data view of tables.

3. Query Analyzer:
Start--Programs--Microsoft SQL Server--Query Analyzer
You can write and run queries, stored procedures etc using this. This is just like Query Browser in MySql.

Hope this will be of your help.

Thanks

You can install MS SQL Client and then use the Enterprise Manager tool
