i'm working on Visual Studio 2008 for a long time and i like the default theme of VS2008. But when working with Visual Studio 2010 the default color scheme look different and i really don't like it. I found this post to change the color scheme but there are no ready style look like VS2008, anyone can suggest me a link to download VS2008 style for VS2010 ?
I think you'll find the below blog useful:

In addition if found the following styles for vs2010 to look like vs2008:

Keep in my mind you need to install vs extension as prerequisite - https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/20cd93a2-c435-4d00-a797-499f16402378/
Update: Since the above links haven't satisfied the answer, I'm adding another source I've found to support the question.

I am writing a language extension in Visual Studio code (see this article for an example), and I wish to know whether this extension will be useable in Visual Studio 2017 (and 2019 when it comes out).
According to the visual studio docs and especially to this picture it should be possible to migrate that language server to visual studio, too.
However it is not possible to use the exact same extension for VS Code as well as for Visual Studio. At least you will have to change the Provider-specific intizialization code (see the picture) to make the server work for Visual Studio, too.
For further reading you can check out the corresponding VS Code docu on language server.
I have a project from VS Studio 2010 that I want to work with in VS 2015. When I start this Project with VS 2015 I receive an error saying something like "compatibility-Error (Version)".
How can I successfully convert a Visual Studio 2010 project to use with Visual Studio 2015?
Without you going into any more detail about the actual error. (error numbers / screenshot) it will be very hard for any of us to give a real answer. Therefore I am going to suggest you take a look at Troubleshooting Unsuccessful Project Upgrades.
Something else to check out might be the Porting, Migrating, and Upgrading Visual Studio Projects guide
One of the key things mentioned in the 2nd link I provided is:
The following list describes support in Visual Studio 2015 and Visual Studio 2013 for projects that were created in Visual Studio 2012 or Visual Studio 2010 SP
Therefore I'd recommend upgrading the 2010 version to SP1 first. (if this is still installed that is)
One further thing to note is that if you keep the old version of Visual studio installed you can import a project which is made with an older version and skip the update. Visual studio 2015 will then use parts of the older version itself to open the project.
For details you can read How to: Upgrade Visual C++ Projects to Visual Studio 2015 page and the equally useful Installing Visual Studio Versions Side-by-Side page.
It appears that there are issues when moving from VS 2010.Net to VS 2015.Net and may require that you build the project from scratch and copy the code over. VS 2015 requires a Namespace. There are a number of designer issues on control that require the style page be used since various attributes have been removed. Something still, however, do work but you need to review the HTML, specifically things like Font and alignment. While it's a pain it isn't a big deal since it requires mostly cut and paste.
If you are having issues converting web projects the projects may have originally been created as a "web site" rather than a "web Project" . Try opening the application as a web site and see what happens. At least that may help get you to the point you can actually get to the code to convert it in VS 2015. Hope this helps.
Try to Right-click the solution, then select "Re-target solution".
How can I alter the appearance of Visual Studio 2012 to make it more closely resemble 2010?
I am specifically concerned with making the colors match.
There is a simple theme editor that you can use.
The blue theme has been added back in Visual Studio 2012 Update 2, no extensions required.

I've been trying to get oF examples to compile with Visual Studio, but I'm either missing a link or something.. Is there a tutorial on how to setup oF with Visual Studio 2010 (or 2008 - or any version)? If not, can someone provide step-by-step directions on setting up oF with Visual Studio?
(Unfortunately, the oF website doesn't provide any info on setting up oF with VS. Their VS link just tells you how to download VS o.O http://www.openframeworks.cc/setup/vs-2008 )
There is a short Tutorial how to setup Openframeworks and Visual Studio 2010
in the OpenFrameworks Forum.

I haven't tried it yet, but it seems ok to me. Zach event hosts prebuild libraries for Visual Studio 2010 (poco comes to mind). They are currently working on a 2010 Version by the way.
Edit December 2010: The people at openframeworks released a new version 0.062 which is available for Visual Studio 2010. You can find it here: link text
Is there any place from where I can download the Visual Studio 2008 sample macros?
It turned out that the folder VSMacros80\Samples is empty on my station.
Thanks!
As far as I know, these aren't available online. (The closest thing I could find was the Visual Studio 2005 Automation Samples, but I don't think this will give you want you are looking for.)
Have you tried a "repair" install? That might add them again.
