Changing Database Schema in the ASP.NET MVC4 Entity Framework Database First Application

Question

I've a ASP.NET MVC4 EF DatabaseFirst Application. It's currently up & running. Now, I will have to make some changes to the Database Schema and re-deploy again. So when I make the DB Schema changes, how do I update the Model, and also which all files should I be updating.

Can someone point me to a tutorial for this.

Thanks

If you're using an ADO.NET entity data model, open up your Model.edmx, right-click anywhere and select Update Model from Database in the context menu.

Updating model

If you've added new tables to the database you'll need to mark the checkbox "Tables" under the Add tab. If you've only modified existing tables, you can just press Finish straight away.
