I have VS2008 Professional Edition with SP1 installed on my machine. Currently we use Visual Source Safe for version controller but we want to change it with Team Foundation Server 2010/2012. So i need to connect TFS with VS2008.
I read some post on the net and they say there is Team Explorer on Tools/Connect to Team Foundation Server to connect to TFS. This should already be installed with VS2008 SP1 but i dont see anything about Team Explorer in my VS2008 menus. How can i open Team Explorer in my VS2008 to connect to TFS that we are planning to install? Or how can i verify that Team Explerer is installed on my machine? First check if Team Explorer is installed:.
Open Visual Studio. Open Menu Help. Open 'About Microsoft Visual Studio'. Check for entry like Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Team Explorer Version 9.0. If not, install Team Explorer: and (re-)install VS SP1 If this is installed, check if you selected TFS as Version Control system:. Open Visual Studio.

Open Menu Tools. Open 'Options.' . Go to 'Source Control' - 'Plug-In selection'. Choose Team Foundation Server Now you should be able to use Team Explorer. To do this:. Open Menu View.
Choose 'Team Explorer'. Connect to you TFS Depending on the TFS version you use, it might be necessary to have a compatibility pack installed (for TFS2010 and TFS2012). TFS2010: TFS2012: An overview of exactly which set of.
I installed TFS Explorer on VS2008 then connect to TFS 2012. But i needed to uninstall VS2008 SP1 first. I uninstalled SP1 from add/remove programms, then i installed TFS Explorer, then i installed SP1 again. After all, i could connect to TFS 2012 by VS2008. But now i have an other problem. When i try to add New Team Project in TF Explorer, VS prompt an error saying that 'TF30172: You are trying to create a team project either without required permission or with an older version of Team Explorer.'
Now i will try to find a solution to this error. If you have any idea, please share. – Apr 15 '13 at 14:30.
