title: How to easily edit SQL XML column in SQL Management Studio
body: <p>I have a table with an XML column. This column is storing some values I keep for configuring my application. I created it to have a more flexible schema.
  I can't find a way to update this column directly from the table view in SQL Management Studio. Other (INT or Varchar for example) columns are editable. I know I can write an UPDATE statement or create some code to update it. But I'm looking for something more flexible that will let power users edit the XML directly.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>

    I can write an application. I know
    that, And that is exactly what I'm
    trying to avoid.</p>
