I'm working myself through this book called Head First C#.NET as I want to get into programming.
Basically the book was written for VS2010, but since my employer has bought me a MSDN License, I decided to go for VS2012 instead.
One of the assignments in the book is to create a local database, and make a database diagram for it. Unfortunately, this functionality has been removed from VS itself from VS2012 and upwards.
I've already googled it, and read that this was replaced by SSDT. Hence, I installed SSDT but I'm still not able to view and/or create a Database Diagram.
Is the "Diagram" functionality completely deprecated from 2012 and should I be looking at something complete different to get what I want / need?
To create a new database diagramIn Object Explorer, right-click the Database Diagrams folder or any diagram in that folder. Choose New Database Diagram on the shortcut menu. The Add Table dialog box appears. Select the required tables in the Tables list and click Add.
To open a database diagramIn Object Explorer, expand the Database Diagrams folder. Double-click the name of the database diagram you want to open. Right-click the name of the database diagram you want to open, and then choose Design Database Diagram.
According to this post, there is no diagram support in SSDT.
