Microsoft SQL Server 2008 offers developers an advanced and powerful database engine and comprehensive programming framework with which to create data centric solutions. Since Visual Studio 2008 and 2005 were released before SQL Server 2008, their respective tools and data designers do not automatically support SQL Server 2008 and its new data types and features. Microsoft is providing SQL Server 2008 support updates for Visual Studio in order to allow the designers to communicate with SQL Server 2008 (CTP5 and later) and take advantage of many of these features.
