Possible to use Qt Open Source integrated in Visual Studio?

I'm currently having issues installing Qt (Open Source Edition) such that I can use it in integrated into Visual Studio 2010. I realize that the 2008 edition will have deployment issues, and so I installed it from the source, only to be missing qtmaind.lib.

Anyways, I was looking around for a solution to this, and I came upon this: http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/install-win.html, which states:

Open Source Versions of Qt is not officially supported for use with any version of Visual Studio. Integration with Visual Studio is available as part of the Qt Commercial Edition.

Anyways, I thought maybe this was the reason I was having problems, and so I wanted to ask the following question:

Is it possible to integrate Open Source Qt into Visual Studio?

Absolutely. I use Qt 4.7 integrated with Visual Studio 2005.

I configured Qt this way:

configure -debug-and-release -opensource -shared -ltcg -no-accessibility -no-qt3support

Once Qt was built (via nmake), I also installed the Qt Visual Studio Add-in.
