How to install and configure Visual Studio Team Explorer
To connect to TFS 2010 using VS2008, you need to install the below components in mentioned order. The Installation order is really important to make it work. 1. Install Visual Studio 2008. 2. Install Team Explorer 2008 (setup.exe in VS2008TeamExplorer folder) 3. Install Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (This will upgrade both VS2008 and Team Explorer 2008 to SP1) (SPInstaller.exe in VS2008SP1ENUX1512962 folder) 4. Install VSTS 2008 Forward Compatibility Update. (VS90SP1-KB974558-x86.exe) All Files are located in “K:\AASIS Support Center\PBAS\r3_table_extract\2012\Software” folder
Once this is done, you should be up and running and ready to connect launch the shell and connect to a project. From the Team Explorer window on the right side of the Visual studio.

Click the “Add existing team project button: Alternate : ‘File’  ‘Add Exixting Team Project’ from visual studio menu This will open a popup window

On the popup window click on the “Servers” button and then on the “Add” button to add the relevant TFS server enter

http://is-oisapps-01 under ‘Team Foundation Server name’ ‘8080‘ port number
And select ‘HTTP’ as Protocol Click OK. You may now click close and then select all project start with PBAS_ to work with: Click OK If you successfully complete all the steps then you will see the list of projects in Team Explorer.

If you then double-click “Source Control” under the project, you can explore the contents of the project and map them to a local folder. To do that, first create the target directory ‘C:\TFS’ from Windows Explorer, then right click a project in the Visual Studio Source Control Explorer and select ‘Map to Local Folder’

Than Map the local folder

After Mapping right click on the project again and select “Get Latest Version”: Click Ok

And… that’s it, you’re all set. You can now open any file or project from the locally mapped folder, check out code, modify it and then check it back in using the Pending Changes window. I hope this helps.
