I'm trying to get a grip on WCF creation and OData but up till now,
all tutorials I found, use older versions of VS. The VS2013 does not have the templates mentioned in the tutorials and the generated code is completely different.
Is there a WCF data service creation tutorial using VS2013 and using a MSSQL db somewhere out there in the internet?

thanks for pointing me to such a resource.

thanks for a quick reply, but again I get stuck with following:

To create the data service

1.On the menu bar, choose Project, Add New Item.

2.In the Add New Item dialog box, choose the Web node, and then choose the WCF Data Service 5.6 item.

the options available to me (VS2013 Express) are : WCF Service, WCF Service (Ajax enabled) and Web Service (ASMX)
the WCF Data Service 5.6 is not in my list and is not available in NuGet. Has it been renamed or is it available somewhere else or as the "Express" something to do with it??
