To get started, simply install and switch to the "Settings" tab and connect to your database and click the "Save" icon and you're off and running. We will be publishing a series of video's on how to use ES2009 soon. Watch for these on our blog.
NOTE:
After installation you should see "EntitySpaces" on the Visual Studio "Tools" menu. If you do not see it go to your Programs -> "EntitySpaces 2009" menu you will find a "Manual Setup" PDF file which outlines a few simple steps performed within Visual Studio to manually add EntitySpaces to your Visual Studio Tools menu. It's really very easy. If you are using an international version of windows you will need to follow those steps.
