    I am following this tutorial to make a local database for my application http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfLk1921Ydc

    I start to follow it but I have no server explorer toolbar like he does in the video. It is also not under view.

      What edition of VS are you running?  If you are running Express then Server Explorer is not available.  Express is designed for hobbyists/students who do not generally work across machines.  For database-related stuff you'll instead use the Database Explorer view.  For your purposes it'll do the same thing.
