Can't Find "DataBase Project"
This article: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2k5xd390.aspx
says
To create a database project
From the File menu, click New Project.
Expand the Other Projects folder, and click Database Projects.
Under Templates click Database Project.
Enter the name for your new project and select a directory location.
Choose either Add to Solution (to add the database project to the currently open solution), or Create New Solution, and click OK.
In my VS2005, Under File>New Project>"Other Project Types"
I see only
> Setup and Deployment
> Extensibility
> Visual Studio Solutions
I've got
Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, Version 8.0.50727.42 (RTM.050727-4200), Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0.50727
What do I need to do to get at and use Database Projects in my VS implementation?
Any help with this would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Purpose for wanting Database Project....I was trailing a thread on creating User Defined Types; was investigating the possibility of using Alias data types.

Does this mean I'm unable to revel in the joys of SQL CLR technology, with my pitiful copy of VS2005 Standard? ;-)
(May be good news...since I'm over my head on learning curve already....)

(When I was trying to decide between Standard and Professional, the SQL CLR was the one thing I couldn't figure out....karma, I guess)

Thanks for the clear (CLR?) message. Well, it probably IS good news, since as far as I can tell I'll can get all the functionality I need from within the app code anyway, no doubt saves me from creating the havoc you suggest is possible, and it takes away another rationale for putting off the actual coding... :0)

Ah, I'm using VS Standard, and using SQL Express (and Management Studio Express)
Any workarounds?
