STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Data > Schema Compare
New Connection..
Type in all info > select database name (it IS seeing all the
databases on the server)
click Test Connection
"Test Connection suceeded"
Click OK
"The database that you selected is not supported"

Does the same thing if I do
New Project > Visual C# > Database > SQL Server Project
Server Explorer
Add New Connection

TROUBLESHOOTING STEPS ALREADY TAKEN:
I tried totally uninstalling Visual Studio 2008, 2005, and SQL 2005
Workstation Components/Client Tools..
Installed Visual Studio 2008
Tried same thing, got same error message.
Installed SQL 2005 Workstation Components / Client Tools
Installed SQL 2005 SP2
Tried same thing, got same error message.

SOLUTION:
Unkown

Fixed it....
Apparently playing with a SQL 2008 demo in the past caused some DLL
hell.
