Column Headings from SQL Results - Easier Way

When you cut and paste data from a SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) result grid into Excel, it doesn't give you the column headings.  I find it surprising that Microsoft chose this as the default.  But to their credit, they gave us a way to change this behavior.  Rhonda did a nice writeup, so I see no need to repeat it here.
