with the latest TOAD for SQL Server to 7.4.1, when I drag a table or view to insert it into the editor, it now puts square brackets around the name.

7.4.0 Example: Database.Schema.TableName  
7.4.1 Example: Database.Schema.[TableName]

How do I turn this off?

I would also loooove to turn off brackets in the editor during code completion.
