The first thing you want to do is add a data connection in the Visual Studio 2010 Servers windows. Right click on "Data Connections" and click on "Add New Connection":

Enter the required connection info in the "Add Connection" dialog and click "Test Connection" to test the connection. If that succeeds, click OK:

After you add the data connection you will be able to see the connection in the Data Connections tree:

Try this..

Thanks.
