Code Analysis missing from Visual Studio 2008

I have just installed Visual Studio 2008 on a Virtual PC to evaluate it and one of the features I want to try out is the Code Analysis.

However I can't seem to find it anywhere, on MSDN it says you can right click on a project and select properties and then simply enable it from there. However I don't see this option anywhere.

At first I thought it may be because I converted a 2005 ASP.NET project targeting .NET 2.0 however as a Test I created a dummy 3.5 project but with still no luck

Has anyone else come across this?

EDIT: I am currently using Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and working on VB.NET/ASP.NET projects

Code Analysis is only in the Team System versions of Visual Studio. All others only come with unit testing.

Code Analysis is only in some editions.

An old version of code analysis, FxCop, is still a free download.

Are you evaluating a Professional or a larger (i.e. Team System) edition? As far as I know, Code Analysis is simply not included in Professional and smaller editions.
