.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / IDE / February 2006Data menu - how do I make it appear?
If I'm on a data connection, the data menu appears and I can add tables, etc. However, I want to see the Data menu that shows the items to show datasources, add new datasource, create dataset, etc. to appear. What's the secret? Thanks, --Stan Hi Stan, Would you please provide some more detailed description about your scenario? Do you mean the "Data" item disappears in your VS2003(or VS2005?) IDE's main menu while you perform some operation? It is better if you can provide some repro steps about this issue... Thanks for your understanding!

Here you go: VS 2005, using C#, on a web application. The main menu (File, Edit, Debug, etc.) doesn't show the "Data" menu selection, which would have the menu items "Show Datasources (Sh-Alt-D)", "Add New Datasource", "Create DataSet", and one other that escapes me. It shows up fine for Windows Apps, and all articles and docs I've read indicate that it should be available for Web apps as well, but I can't figure how how to make it show up. This is both on a machine running Windows 2003 Server that at one time had VSTS beta 2 on it, and another running XP that never had VSTS betas on it.

I am afraid the Data menu is not available for a web site/web service project in Visual Studio 2005. Unlike the WinForm and Console applications' programming model, the web project's data source object in not in the client machine's memory, so we adopt a different design-time behavior for a web site/service project. This is by design in VS2005. If you need to add some datasourcce or dataset to your web project, I suggest you use the items from Toolbox's Data tab or the "Add New Item..." wizard of the project. Thanks for your understanding!

It's really no big deal since the XSD's are all in one place anyway.
