Can we connect to TFS 2010 from Team explorer 2008? This is the question to most of the people who want to use TFS 2010, but, they don't have VS 2010 installed by chance. So, no need to bother. Visual studio 2008, Team explorer 2008 supports it and you can connect to 2010 TFS server. But, you need to install one package for the forward compatibility for VSTS 2008 version. You can download it here.
Visual Studio Team System 2008 Service Pack 1 Forward Compatibility Update for Team Foundation Server 2010 (Installer)
But, before you install it, make sure you have installed the VS SP1 and Team Explorer SP1.
Visual Studio SP1 and Team Explorer SP1
Before you install anything, please read the article to avoid problems.

Could not load type Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.workItemTypeDeniedOrNotExistException
This is the exception we are getting when we try to view the workitems from the Team explorer in visual studio. The problem is, you installed the team explorer after you installed the Visual studio 2008 SP1. Because of this, all the workitem related dll’s are not referenced correctly. And result is below exception message.
Resolution:
To fix this issue, we just need to reinstall the visual studio sp1. So, the order should be
- Visual Studio
- Team Explorer
- Visual Studio SP1
Hope this helps to the people who are facing the same issue.
