database created in SQL Server 2008 - can we use in Asp.net project in Visual Studio 2015

Dear all,

I have created and used a database for my asp.net application in SQL Server 2008. Now I would like to use that database in Visual Studio 2015 - in my local system for testing and development.

I am not getting the import option in visual studio 2015 application for this.

Can anyone suggest a way to use this in my Visual Studio 2015 application.

Cheers

Sathya
