If you've upgraded to SQL Server 2012 and used the new Management Studio, you've probably noticed that your table and column names are now a teal color that looks exactly like the color of your comments. Previous versions of Management Studio would use the color specified for "Plain Text", but the new version uses a new setting.
To change the color, open the Tools menu and choose Options.... In the Environment settings click Fonts and Colors. Locate and click "Identifier" in the Display Items list box then change the Item foreground to something other than Default. That should do the trick.
