MgmtStudio: Use current connection/window when opening file

Is there a setting that I am missing, or is it just not possible to do.

When I have a "QueryAnalyzer" Connection/Window open in SQL Server Management Studio, and I open a script file... it wan't to make another connection.

Is there a way that I can set it to NOT do this, and use the existing Window/Connection.

As we have to SQL Logins and thus need to type our passwords each time a new connection is made...

Also, is CTRL-N not in use anymore to open a new connection/window ?

This behavior has been changed in our next service pack (Service Pack 2). There were many Microsoft Connect items filed around this. You can check them out here: http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/.
