I installed the beta 2 of Visual Studio 2010 today. I went to test out the new entity framework stuff (to see if my “issues” from v1 were fixed.).

I started adding a new connection string, but when i put in my information for sql 2000 it said “this server version is not supported. you must have Microsoft sql server 2005 or later.”. Did they drop support for Sql Server 2000 in v2 of the entity framework???

    Submitted a support call to microsoft and they responded:

    Entity Framework v2 doesn’t support sql 2000

    Here is there response:

    Thank you for posting this bug. Unfortunately, a business decision was made to no longer support SQL Server 2000 in this scenario.

    So no support for sql 2000 in entity framework v2 in .net 4.0
