In VS 2010 I added an EDM and it displays in the data sources window. In VS 2012 I add the EDM the same way and it does not display in the Data Sources window so I then follow the steps.... Click Add New Data Source to open the Data Source Configuration Wizard again. On the Choose a Data Source Type page click Object and then click Next . Expand the node whose name is the same as your project. Enable the tables you want to add to Data Source. Click Finish . This adds the EDM into the Data Sources window I then drag a bound datagrid onto my window and it is empty? Thanks Dean.
