Adding tables to SQL server database in visual studio?

Hi

I keep reading it's possible to add, amend ,etc. tables in visual studio but to do so I need access to the features that allow this.
I can connect to the database but I haven't been able to use any of these database features since they are "blanked" out.
Obviously, I can do all this at the server but ideally I would like to do it remotely.

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.In your server explorer, can you navigate to the tables?
-Servers
- <your server>
- SQL Servers
- <your SQL server>
- <your database>
- tables

From there you should be able to add, change, or delete tables.

Thanks for the reply.

I can navigate to the tables but the menu features are not available for adding,etc. tables.
Could it be something at the server end that I need to change?

Thanks in advance.sql
