Question

I am trying to re-deploy my ASP.NET MVC3 application across several different environments and would like to try using SQL Azure. I’d like to use my existing LINQ structure and CreateDatabase to create these databases.

I am wondering how I can use CreateDatabase with SQL Azure since the USE statement doesn’t work on the platform.

Please answer with any suggestions or if there might be a better way to do this.

Important: The CREATE DATABASE
statement must be the only statement
in a Transact-SQL batch. You must be
connected to the master database when
executing the CREATE DATABASE
statement.

You’ll have to find a way to fit in this premise. Maybe it’s not possible.
