I am looking to use a database project in visual studio 2010 so that we can version control a database.

I have used a database project before but we had a batch file that we had to add to any scripts we wanted to be run. I didn’t set this up and I am not sure if this is the best way to go about it.

We have just started using VS 2010 and would like to use that.

I am basically looking for any hints, tips, tutorials and general best practices for setting up and using a database project in VS 2010.

Thanks

    On the scripts issues, the database project will have folders called pre-deployment and post-deployment under the scripts folder. Any custom scripts you need should be put there. The database project can be used to create a database from scratch. It can also be used, via a schema comparison, to generate change scripts to move from an older version of the schema to the current version.

    You should start with Microsoft’s info on how to work with database projects in VS2010.
