External Tools - tried to save all my files

I defined an "external tool" in SQL SMS 2005 to launck the notepad. Every
time when I click it SMS tries to save all my pened windows (opened queryes 
-
and I have a lots), asking me the save path and name. It's very weird. May I
disable it, or it is a bug?
thanks

I guess you selected $(ItemPath) as argument. It does make sense that it
should prompt you to save the active window. However, it makes little
sense that it should prompt you to save every window.

I would suggest that you submit a bug for the behaviour on
http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/ProductFeedback/.

No, I have no params in command line, no Arguments, no Initial directory. Th
e
simplest case!
I reported it to Microsoft.
Thanks anyway
