In SQL 2k5 every db object say table , table fields etc have extension properties . I plan to populate these extension properties with meta data related information like field description , string length , case conversion , field alignment , enum options etc .

I wish to know if anybody has done, anything like this . Can this properties be easily avaialble in .Net development , reporting services , BIDS etc . Can there be significant advantages wrt this .

I would like to get user experiences .

Nice program that works well and has multiple export formats. Might save a lot of time & efort.
