Hello Greg,
Can you give us more information about the solution and the project you are trying to add the domain model?
Is it Desktop, Web Asp or Silverlight Project? We need that information to narrow down the possibilities,

Kind regards,

I am developing an ASP.NET web app targeting .NET 4.0.  I am using SQL Server 2005 for the backend.

Hi Greg,
If you are adding the domain model to a web application it should work, but if you are trying to add the same model to a WebSite kind of project, this is not doable - we need the enhancement procedure, and that part is not applicable in a web site scenario. The way to do it is to have the model in a library project that is then referenced by the site. Please tell me if this is your case.

Sincerely yours,
Dimitar Kapitanov

The latter is the case, it's not a web application but rather a website.
