Connecting VS2005 to SQL Server 2005

When I try to attach an ".mdf" to a project by right clicking on the project name the software looks for an instance of SQL Server 2005 Express. How do I alter this behavior to have it look to my full copy of SQL Server 2005 which appears to be working correctly?

You have to configure VS to us a specific instance of SQL Server. Check out Tools | Options, you can set a number of options related to database access.
