Description:
Right clicking on a view in the schema browser and selecting 'edit table', which is wrong anyway, results in an error message. The error message is 'The following exception occurred: Access violation at address 7C343305 in module MSVCR71.dll- Read of address 00000000'
This relates to MySQL 5.0.1-alpha-nt.

How to repeat:
Create view, right click on it in the schema browser and select 'edit table'.

Suggested fix:
The 'right-click' needs to be smart enough to display 'edit view' instead of 'edit table' when invoked on a view, and bring up an SQL window with the appropriate syntax to quickly allow changing the view.
