Connecting a SQL Server Data Source to Visual Studio -

Hello Out there.

Im an avid and willing learner programmer. I have a problem and i cant seem to find a solution.

The main point of my problem is i cannot connect my SQL Server to my Visual Studio.

The steps i have taken so far is,

  1. I downloaded the WideWorldImporters Database in my SQL Server
  2. Open the VS2017 and went to data source
  3. Choose Database->Dataset and locate the database,
  4. Check the tables and views

And then the problem came up which says " Dynamic SQL generation is not supported against a SelectCommand that does not return any base table information "

I have a hunch, should i download the ADO.Net?

Can you help me regarding this? please?
