Database Projects with Visual Studio 2012 Exist?

14,726

The new SQL Server Data Tools should be installed with the RC out of the box. It should provide you the ability to connect to an existing DB via SQL Server Object Explorer (open in the "views" menu), as well as the ability to import an existing DB into a project, or create a new DB project. this link to MSDN gives a very thorough overview of how to use SSDT. Hope that helps!

EDIT: SQL Server projects are in File -> New -> Project -> Templates -> Other Languages -> SQL Server

    With the upcoming release of Visual Studio 2012, are there project templates for managing SQL Server scripts?

    i.e. I have tables, views, stored procedures that I want to store and maintain in TFS by including them in a database project which maintains scripts.

    Looking at the RC version of 2012 I do not see this type of project template any more. Any workarounds or information on how to manage scripts?
