What happened to the "Run" and "Run On" commands in Visual Studio 2010 Database Projects?

I have migrated a database project from VS2008 to VS2010. While in VS08, I used to be able to right-click on a .sql or .cmd file and select a "Run" or "Run On" command from the context menu.

In VS2010, though, these menu items seem to have gone away.

I have a number of .sql and .cmd scripts that I am used to being able to run directly from the Visual Studio IDE.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks, Steve

Open the sql source you want to execute. Now, right click in the editor and select "Execute SQL". First time you will be asked to connect to a database. If you want to execute on a second database you have to right click and select "Connection->Disconnect" first.

Unfortunately they have not been implemented (much to the annoyance of developers)

MS say:

Unfortunately we were unable to add the right click on database reference/server explorer conx to the product.
