Is there any way to work with F# on Visual Studio 2010 Expression Edition. I am having Visual Studio 2010 Express Edition Beta 2.
There won't be Visual F# Express but you can use the free Visual Studio Shell (wich is available for 2008 and 2010) with F#. It works perfectly for 2008 but I have not tested it with 2010.
Update:
The release of F# 2.0 works with the 2010 Integrated shell as well; see Don Syme's blog post "Announcing the F# 2.0 Free Tools Update".
Update:
Visual F# tools 3.1.1 now support VS Express for Desktop and VS Express for Web
Unfortunately, there are no plans to include an F# Express edition for Visual Studio 2010. The express editions for 2010 are:
Visual Basic 2010 Express
Visual Web Developer 2010 Express
Visual C# 2010 Express
Visual C++ 2010 Express
Source of above.
While F# is not included in VS2010 Express, it appears to be supported in VS2012 Express Web Edition.
Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web ... is a free
development environment that programmers can use to build projects
such as ASP.NET applications and Windows Azure cloud services. This F#
Tools release adds in F# 3.0 components, such as the F# 3.0 compiler,
F# Interactive, IDE support, and new F# features such as type
providers and query expressions.

Here is how my VS 2010 current looks
Here is how it should looks like
If I remember correctly, profiling tools (of which the performance explorer is part of) are shipped with Premium and Ultimate versions only.
edit: I really should have mentioned that I was talking about the 2010 editions of VS. My mistake.
I am going to learn F#. In my lecturer notes, they have simply asked to open VS 2010, open project, select other languages and select F# ! I have VS 2010 express, and everything is separated into different software like Visual C++, Visual C# etc, there is no F# !
In this thread (Is F# 3.0 available on Visual Studio 2010 professional?) I found it is in VS 2012 express so I downloaded it. But, again I can't find F#!
How to make a F# project in VS express? Please help!
EDIT
At least, is this is available in Visual Studio 2010 Professional? Please help!
Download Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web (it is important, you cannot use F# with Visual Studio Express 2012 for Desktop or other), then install F# Tools for Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web. Full description how to do this is on msdn blog
Microsoft released F# tools for Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web, but I'm using Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop. I read that Microsoft had no plans to support the desktop version.
Is there still a way to use F# in Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop? Is it possible to somehow invoke the F# compiler that ships with the F# tools for Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web?

No. Of the free editions, F# 3.0 only works with Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web.
Is it possible to somehow invoke the F# compiler that ships with the F# tools for Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web?
Not AFAIK.
How do I change from the default settings (which I suppose supports VB) in visual studio 2010 express to support C# code
?
Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2010 edition comes in several versions.
C#
C++
Basic
Web Developer
Download the C# version

I use C# and asp.net in visual studio 2008 standard. I just found out that there is no Visual studio 2010 standard.
I can't really afford Visual studio 2010 Pro.
So what am I going to lose when (if) I start using
C# 2010 express
web dev 2010 express
Have a look at this question, it has a complete list.
Prices were leaked here: Microsoft names Visual Studio 2010 dates. There is no Standard edition, Visual Studio 2010 Professional will be priced at $799, ooouuuuch!!!
I'm using the express editions of VS 2010 and here's what I've found to be missing compared to VS 2008 Pro:
No support for plugins at all (e.g. no Resharper or what not)
No windows Service template (this is really odd as this exists in VS 2008 C# express edition, so it must've been removed from 2008 express to 2010 express)
And that's pretty much it, there are probably other things missing too, however I haven't come across anything else.
I've used VS 2008 express editions at home for a long time (and now 2010 express), but run VS 2008 Pro at work.
