Before moving to Azure I used to create and modify data tables for my Database within Visual Studio 2010 directly from the Server Explorer (Add New Table / Open Table Definition).
Unfortunately it does not seem possible any longer to do this for an SQL Azure Database, "feature not supported". Does anybody know of a GUI based tool for creating and modifying data table schemas? I could obviously script these changes but it's so much quicker with a GUI.
Does Visual Studio 2012 support this?
Yes, the Server Explorer of Visual Studio 2012 supports connections to SQL Azure Databse servers. But you can also use the free SQL Server Express Management Studio 2008 R2 (or newer) to connect to SQL Azure or even use the designer in the SQL Server Management Portal.
Edit:
I see you would like to have a designer UI. There's no such feature in SSMS as far as I know but Visual Studio 2012 does support this feature. If you don't want to switch to VS2012 you still can user the UI from the SQL Azure Management portal.

How about the SSDT (SQL Server Data Tool) which shipped along with SQL Server 2012 and integrated with VS2012. It support GUI for SQL Server as well as SQL Azure.

I have found the installer for the VS2017 version here, but is there one for the 2019 preview version?
SQL Server Reporting Services and SQL Server Analysis Services (SSRS, SSDT, SSAS, MSAS):
Support for these project types is provided through two extensions in the Visual Studio Gallery: Microsoft Analysis Services Modeling Projects and Microsoft Reporting Services Projects. SSDT support is also included with the Data Storage and Processing workload in Visual Studio 2019.
SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS):
Support for Visual Studio 2019 is coming soon. Get latest news from the SQL Server Data Tools Team Blog.
*the info source is here.
April 15th, 2019 Release of SQL Server Integration Services Projects (Version 3.0 Preview):
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SSIS.SqlServerIntegrationServicesProjects&ssr=false#overview
Update: opened an existing dtproj successfully in Visual Studio 2019, and so far, Script Components have kept their code in-between saves
Note:
For users who are worried about downloading Visual Studio Community Edition for commercial use.
The EULA of VS 2019 community edition has a specific section that allows enterprise users to use it for the SSDT workload. See https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/license-terms/mlt031819/.
Any number of your users may use the software only for Microsoft SQL
Server development when using the SQL Server Data Tools or the
extensions “Microsoft Analysis Services Projects”, “Microsoft
Reporting Services Projects”, or “SQL Server Integration Services
Projects” to develop Microsoft SQL Server database projects or
Analysis Services, Reporting Services, Power BI Report Server, or
Integration Services projects.
In the Visual Studio 2019 installer make sure you've selected the Data Storage and Processing payload. It will install the latest version of SSDT into your Visual Studio 2019 installation:
Afterward, it shows up here (for me):
it is showing on the same page for which you gave the link.. but it seems not yet released by ms itself..
best way is to raise a ticket with ms if you have support agreement ..

I was searching for Business Intelligence SSDT tools on Visual Studio 2013.
I found SSDT for Visual Studio 2012 here,
http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=36843
Can we install the same to install for VS 2013?
If not where can i find SSDT for VS 2013?
It was just released here for Visual Studio 2013: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42313
Visual Studio 2013 support for SSDT isn't released yet. The appropriate feedback at connect states that
SSDT-BI 2014 for Visual Studio 2013 is coming, but not yet available (release date hasn’t been announced yet)
With the release of SQL Server 2014 (seems to be in April) support for Visual Studio 2013 should be added.
This was released a few days ago (SSDT-BI for VS2013).
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42313
The download was not available on April 16th 2014. The download site "http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42313" directs to a single text file indicating that SSDT-BI has been temporarily removed .... etc.
SQL Server tooling in Visual Studio 2013 - all the great database tools, now acquisition and updates are fully integrated in Express for Web, Express for Windows Desktop, Professional, Premium, and Ultimate. Since SQL Server tooling is included in VS, the updates will be pushed through VS Update and users will be prompted when VS is open. If you'd like to check for updates manually, open Visual Studio 2013 and choose the Tools > Extensions and Updates menu. SQL Server tooling updates will appear in the Updates list.
"For Visual Studio 2013, there are two different products that are called "SSDT".
One SSDT includes tools for relational databases in Visual Studio, with features like Data Compare, Schema Compare and SQL Server Database Projects. The other SSDT, referred to as SSDT-BI, includes the BI project types for SSRS, SSIS and SSAS. The SSDT relational tools are included in Visual Studio's setup experience as a checkbox option, but the SSDT-BI tools, on the other hand, are only available as a separate download. This "two SSDTs" thing caused a lot of confusion and was widely regarded as a bad move, so for Visual Studio 2015 we've made some changes." -- MSDN: How to install SSDT
Be sure to upgrade your SQL Server to 2014 before making this jump. It'll upgrade your packages and make them un-usable in SQL Server 2012 environment. I've had to roll my packages back...

I usually use Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 for system development and I always use the built-in SQL Server Express in Visual Studio to create and manage a database.
Currently, I'm learning Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 2008 to create and manage a database.
I got some questions here:
What is the differences of the database in built-in sql server in Visual Studio & SQL Server Management Studio? Such as features and limitations.
Will it be better to create and manage database in SQL Server Management Studio instead of the built-in visual studio database?
I encounter a problem which is unable to upload my built-in Visual Studio SQL database to the web server in the past. So is creating database in SQL Server Management Studio much ideal for uploading database file to web server?
Thanks in advance.
Te latest versions of SSMS say "powered by Visual Studio" so your question could be moot. I think using SSMS gets you slightly closer to the database server itself -- which if you are doing admin too may be a good thing.

Can somebody list out the tools needed to develop for windows phone? How do I test my app apart from the emulator? Are there test phones available? I don't want to go through the installation of VS 2010 express.
You can download the test tools here (web installer).
If you don't want to use the web installer, you can download an ISO here.
You cannot test your application outside the emulator - only on the actual Windows Phone 7 device - WP7 apps run on a specific subset of .NET Framework that cannot be compared directly to any other .NET application type. The actual phone is only available to small groups of developers for testing purposes only and to Microsoft employees.
If you have a commercial version of Visual Studio 2010 installed, you don't need the Express edition.
Everything you need is at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=04704acf-a63a-4f97-952c-8b51b34b00ce&displaylang=en which includes a list of everything that gets installed. You sort of need to have some flavor of VS2010 installed.
You'll need Visual Studio 2010 and the Windows Phone 7 SDK/Tools. You can use your pre-existing Visual Studio 2010 installation, or use the bundled Express SKU. That'll install the project template and emulator into the IDE.
Once the phones have launched, you should be able to deploy to the phone, and run it there.

I am a novice freelancer providing .NET solutions. Currently I have a Student version of Visual Studio that I am working. But, If I want to deliver solutions to the clients, do I need to have buy the VS license?
For instance, I got a requirement from a client (does'nt have VS license) to build a web application in godaddy. In this case, does we both need to purchase license?
Is there any alternative like developing the application in web developer express edition and publish that using Nant tools?
Thanks in advance,
Kris
Use the Visual Studio Express edition. There are no limitations regarding commercial use.
From FAQ
Can I use Express Editions for
commercial use? Yes, there are no
licensing restrictions for
applications built using Visual Studio
Express Editions.
Microsoft just released a new version of Visual Studio - Visual Studio Community.
It is the equivalent of Visual Studio 2013 Professional but free for students, open source software projects, and small teams (less than 5).
I am not a lawyer and this is not a site to get legal questions answer. But in general, you cannot use student versions to deliver commercial products. Also, depending on the software each machine has to use it's own license of the software.
If you're talking about Visual Studio 2010 Express, then there's a thread here on the MSDN forums that states: "Provided that you comply with all the License Terms for a particular Express release, the 2010 Express SKUS can be used to create commercial software."
