Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server
I have upgraded to a new laptop and version of Visual Studio 2010. When I open studio and create a new project and attempt to connect to a test database on my sql 2003 server I receive a message that says "This server version is not supported" You must use sql 2005 or later. I have tried to google this error but the solutions provided seem to be for VS 2008 and not 2010. Does anyone know if there is a work around for this or am I missing someting? I can connect successfully via odbc and through enterprise manager if that means anything.
