Visual Studio Team System 2008 Database Edition GDR R2

This is the update to the VS 2008 Database Edition and adds support for SQL Server 2008 and no longer requires a local database server to operate.  It was released back in April, but I just realized I needed it when I installed SQL Server 2008 on my local development machine, and found out that the base install does NOT support SQL Server 2008.

Now it does!

Here is the link to the download.

This is an update to the VS Database Edition, which is now included if you have Team Developer Edition (or possibly Professional Edition, not sure on that), so be sure to install that first.

I can’t believe ANYONE does database work these days without using database edition.

It has become a part of every project I start in Visual Studio.
