Add Enum missing
Posted: Wed 25 Jan 2012 17:31
I feel like an idiot, but I can't figure out how to add an enum. I read the documentation, and it states:
"In the Model Explorer window, right-click the Enum Types node and select the Add Enum Type command from the drop-down menu or, alternatively, click the Add Enum Type button on the toolbar of the Model Explorer window."
However, I don't have an Enum Types node or a button in the toolbar. I have the latest version of EF from 1/12/12, so that's not the problem.
Can anyone tell me why I don't see the option to add an enum?
While I'm asking, is there a way to point to an existing enum elsewhere in my code, rather than creating a new one. This one might become obvious once I figure out the first question, but I'd like to know for sure it's possible.
Thx.
