So with LINQ-to-SQL I know you can update the database from the LINQ objects and update the LINQ objects from the SQL.

I am using LINQ’s entity framework (a.k.a. LINQ-to-entities) and I can update the entities from the SQL database, but I can’t update the database schema by changing the entities.

This is frustrating. Is there something I am missing? Am I doing something wrong? If this is not possible with Visual Studio 2008 is there a plug-in or other 3rd party application that will do this?

    Right now the EF model can only be generated from the database. The database cannot be generated from the model.

    Something that is talked about for future versions.
