I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on my workstation and
selected pretty much all the options.

I then installed Visual Studio Team Developer on my system with all
but C++ and J#.

When I launched Visual Studio, the top left web part did not have
Create/Open links for Web Projects. I also noticed that the big
newsfeed area was SQL specific.

What do I need to do to get the "right" start page for Visual Studio?
Thanks!

OK, I uninstalled and reinstalled everything, making sure to leave out
the SQL Server option that installs the VS IDE.

Now, my new question is:
How do I get the "Business Intelligence Projects" loaded into
Visual Studio 2005 without clobbering my other project types?

Thanks for any suggestions!

In case anyone cares about the answer....

It turns out that if you install the SQL Server Developer Tools after
you already have Visual Studio '05 installed, it won't clobber your
settings but if you do it the other way around, VS2005 won't show web
projects as a new project option on the Start page.
