c# - How to make SQL Server Connection (not from file) appear in ADO.Net Connection Model Wizard? -
i trying add connection adventureworks on new development machine running vs 2010. have ssms running , able query adventureworks database. however, when click “new connection” (steps followed below after *) , not see sql server connection option. there way configure vs 2010 sees localhost connection sql server?

- steps followed new project class library right click solution explorer add new item ado.net entity data management new connection
just type in localhost server name, test connection , click ok. saved, next time appear in list.
