I’m trying out Visual Studio 2012 and so far it’s good but I created database project, added database *.mdf file to my App_Data and tried to create simple database with relations and I have no clue what to do next. I can’t even name my database.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh272680(v=vs.103).aspx – AFAIK this article shows how to add relations but I can’t find any Foreign Keys node. And also, why can’t I edit name? VS2010 database management was so easy and intuitive, now I don’t understand how to work with it.

More visual representation of my question and my simple table for example.

    Table name you can change in Properties window:
    table properties
    relations by right clicking on Foreign Keys:
    keys
    You can also modify sql in lower pane – all changes will be reflected in graphical tools. I’m find this useful e.g. when I want to copy some columns from one table to another.
    You can also make changes on database with another tools, like SSMS (better FK tools I think) and then import this changes via Schema Compare by setting database as source and project as destination.
