When i try to establish a connection with SQL Server 2008 i am getting:
The server version is not supported. only servers up to SQL Server 2005 are supported.
What’s wrong with this? is there a patch?

Visual Studio 2008 came out in 2007, while SQL Server 2008 wasn’t released until Late 2008. So although they have the same year in the names, there is a pretty big gap between them.
The current solution is to upgrade to Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1
