    Problem with the database file

      I am following the tutorial using Visual Studio 2010 and I got as far as adding some movies to the database. After I went to the data connections and opened the database to view the table and the data, I could no longer run the application.  The error said the database could not be opened.  The error continued even after I closed the connection to the database (right click and close connection on the tutorial database).  If I try to delete the database file it says it is in use by SQL Server.  I had to edit the connection string to use a new database.  Now when I go to the data connections and try to open the old database it won't let me because it says the file is in use

Any idea what is going wrong and how I can delete the old database files?
Can I view the database using the Data Connections in the Server Explorer.

      I just installed VS2010, SP1. When I try to open the solution, I get this message:
'...\MVC 4\C#\MvcMovie\MvcMovie.csproj' cannot be opened because its project type (.csproj) is not supported by this verstion of the application. To open it, please use a version that supports this type of project.

What do I need?

      This usually indicates SP1 is not installed correctly. We have nearly 1,500 downloads with no reported problems. Try opening other ASP.NET MVC 3/4 projects that require SP1.

    Why is this titled "Intro to ASP.NET MVC 4" but it shows MVC3?

      The article is entitled Intro to ASP.NET MVC 4, but the screenshots and directions are for ASP.NET MVC3. What gives?

      No, it's MVC 4 Beta. It has a lot of similarity to MVC 3. Can you point out what is not MVC 4?
