The problem is this. There is MS sql server Manager studio and MS sql server 2012. I want to connect to the database via MS Visual Studio 2010. I know that when connecting, I need to select the SQL server data source, but it is not. There are only these sources. Can you please tell me how to connect?

  • Namely Database First and if the base is empty, then code first is also possible - Sasuke
  • What are you so scared of a person with your abbreviations? You do not have an ODBC driver. Installation example here docs.microsoft.com/ru-ru/sql/relational-databases/… - Dev
  • What is the edition of Visual Studio? What is the ultimate goal (why connect to the database via VS with Management Studio, which does the same thing more conveniently)? - MSDN.WhiteKnight
