I'm using Visual web developer 2008 Express edition with VS version 9.0.30729.1 SP, and Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio2012, version 11.0.3000.0
SQL Server 2012 has got a target framework of 4.5 whereas VS 2008 has got a framework version of 3.5. VS 2008 will not be able to identify your instance of SQL Server.
