I've ran into problem very similar to this. I have a .dbproj Visual Studio database project. It deploys just fine in SQL Server Express. Now I want to deploy it to SQL Azure - I change the connection parameters but deployment fails with the following text:
C:\Program Files\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v10.0\TeamData\Microsoft.Data.Schema.TSqlTasks.targets(120,5): Error Deploy01234: The target database schema provider could not be determined. Deployment cannot continue. Done executing task "SqlDeployTask" -- FAILED.
Is deploying .dbproj projects to SQL Azure supported? How do I make Visual Studio deploy the database into SQL Azure? What are other ways to achieve more or less the same results except recreating the database manually using Azure portal?

Open your project in Visual Studio. In Solution Explorer, right-click the Connected Services node, and, from the context menu, select Add Connected Service. In the Connected Services tab, select the + icon for Service Dependencies. In the Add Dependency page, select Azure SQL Database.
Steps to resolve persistent connectivity issuesSet up firewall rules to allow the client IP address. On all firewalls between the client and the Internet, make sure that port 1433 is open for outbound connections. Review Configure the Windows Firewall to Allow SQL Server Access for additional pointers.
If you are using Visual Studio 2012, you can now create a Database project and go to Properties - set its Target Platform to SQL Azure in Project Settings tab. Also you can configure the setting for dacpac output. Use this file to import directly as a new SQL Azure database.

As far as I know, Database projects are still not supported by Windows Azure. You can deploy the project to a local SQL server and then use the "Generate Scripts" feature to port the database to SQL Azure. See this link.
