Integration with Team Foundation Server

Hi Everyone.

Does Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) integrate with the Team Foundation Server   I've read that BIDS is based on VS.NET, but it's a different client than standard VS.NET. 

Can we setup a Team Foundation Project and integrate the work item lists, check in policies, etc, with BIDS

Thanks,
Rob

    BIDS is actually just a copy of the VS IDE so in theory it should work. But it does not come with the Team Foundation Project, only the BI projects. YOu can upgrade BIDS to a full copy of VS by just installing over the top, this will keep the BI projects. Or you can just install the BI projects into a VS installation.

    Management Studio uses VS technology and so will not automatically work with TS.

    I have this working without problem, though my understanding was that the latest patch set for TFS included support for the full set of database projects in VSTS.
