I’m looking to upgrade from the Express editions and I was wondering if Visual Studio Pro edition came with SQL server 2008 R2 developer edition.
Thanks.

Nope, you have to buy them separately, but you can work with SQL Express in the meantime.
Edit: I don’t know why but SQL Server 2008 r2 Dev edition is just $47.99 on amazon.
and also SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer can easily be upgraded to SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise, web, standard etc., without reinstallation.
Edit 2: Ok, as @Infotekka says, YES it is included on the MSDN Subscription with some other software which comes in the purchase of VS2010 Pro 🙂
