I've Learned C# Using Visual Studio For Long Enough. It's So Fun and Easy To Code and Learn Programming Using Visual Studio IDE. But Sometimes, I Ever Think To Make A Real Program That Useful Like Usually Software. Could I Make Good Software Just Using Visual Studio ? and If Yes, What's The Shortage of A Software That Develop Using Visual Studio ?
Thanks,

of course you can create a "real" program using Visual Studio. Visual Studio is one of the biggest IDE (Integrated Development Environment) out there.
For example Microsoft is using Visual Studio to create all of their Applications.
Office, Exchange, Windows and the list goes on.
If you want to create useful software with Visual Studio and C# think small in the beginning. Try to create applications that help YOU with whatever you do at your pc, because if you are able to create software that is useful to you, then it might be useful for others too, right?
Everybody starts out small and works his/her way up.

I am trying to install Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 with Update 3 for Windows.
I have downloaded its iso image, and the started the installation. But it seems to be stuck at "Configuring your system, this may take a while" for more than 2-3 hours.
Does it usually takes this much time only, is it normal, or there seems to be a problem with the iso file?
How much time does it usually take for complete installation?
Visual studio generally takes a lot of time as it is the new update, wait for some more time if it is still the same, cancel and try updating again.
I was having the same problem, if you're visual Studio just stuck for to long like mine was, use alt-tab, to switch to another windows.
This might show a hidden windows with the next steps. Hope that can help you
Here's also some info that could help
Visual Studio takes forever to start the first time
i recently downloaded the Visual Studio 2015 community and i agree that it takes much more time..... just keep your lappy away for installing and go away for doing some other stuff........it is going to take 3 hrs approx

I am in my first year of programming and I was assigned to create a GUI using software such as Dreamweaver, VB, ect. I was hoping to get some input on how to go about this project, without learning a boat load of code or a software I am unfamiliar with.
I am familiar with DW and VB, but not really sure how to create a GUI using VB. I have heard of a designer feature in VB.
If you are using anything after Visual Basic 6 & are programming for Windows, Visual Studio comes with one. Should be File->New->New Project->Visual Basic->Windows->Windows Form Application or similar depending on the edition & settings of Visual Studio (The 'form' is the relevant part)
If you are a student, you can get Visual Studio Professional at DreamSpark. If not, you can get Visual Studio Express Visual Basic for free.

I want to ask you if it is possible to build and run coded ui tests without Visual Studio 2010 Premium installed?
Or can I just install Visual Studio 2010 Premium and use it command line without licensing? I know it works, but is the license ok with that?
Nope, you would need to license it. If you want to run the tests on a 'test' machine or 'build' machine without using VS to run them, then I would look at the Test Agent, Controller, and remote execution in the Test Sku's available from MS.

I currently work with both Visual Studio, Eclipse/Rad, and Vim heavily. Visual Studio and Eclipse don't present any problems because they're the same paradigm. However vim (which I use for my *nix work) muddles the issue because it's modal. I actually like the modal nature of vim and find myself trying to type esc k k in Visual Studio. Does anyone have a suggestion about how to make working in the different environments easier?
You could always get ViEmu for Visual Studio and viPlugin for Eclipse / RAD...
Try use this script:
www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=864
The visual studio script in vim allow you use external command line to work with visual studio.
The plugin is write in vim-script and python, which means you need to install python so that you can run the script.
The script doesn't need you to have a python-embed version of vim (it can auto detect that), but it is highly recommend you to use a python-embed version for performance.
Before I using this plugin I have same problem with you, at that time I use external tool in Visual Studio which you can find here:
vim.wikia.com/wiki/Calling_gvim_from_MS_Visual_Studio
Also I recommend you to check exVim project, which already integrate the Visual Studio plugin in it, and provide an python-embed version

As you all know Visual Studio Express edition do not support Source Control Integration and Add in
As it is obvious there is a feature which allows VS tointegrate with any kind of source control. So I'm using VS express for myself (in home, and for my presonal Project and want to use a source control for my projects) So what should I Do
Currently I'm using SVN and by Command Prompt using svn, but I want to create an Add-In for VS Express edition which works with VS Express.
Any help will Appriciate.
Update : An example for doing this is to write an application which run beside of VS and by refactoring find the Items and make them capable to work with a sourcecontrol inside of VS express
your solution may be completely different
As Sam said, you can't write an Add-on. In my opinion, the best add-in for the full Visual Studio is AnkhSVN and they have not been able to create one either.
So I would recommend looking at Tortoise SVN instead. It is a complete, mature and Free GUI SVN client, implemented as a Windows Explorer extension. If you can't integrate into Visual Studio Express, this is the next best thing.
Microsoft's Dan Fernandez from the Visual Studio team does discuss on his blog how TestDriven.NET managed to work around the restrictions in the Express Editions.
I recommend against trying this for practical and ethical reasons, but the information is out there, so this answer would not be complete without it.
I don't think you can as the express editions don't support Add-ins. See this question for some more details
