Not coded it yet. <br> <br> Is F# going to be supported out of the box in VS 2010?http://channel9.msdn.com/shows/10-4/10-4-Episode-17-F-Intro/?CommentID=467565Fri, 01 May 2009 07:50:15 GMThttp://channel9.msdn.com/shows/10-4/10-4-Episode-17-F-Intro/?CommentID=4675650http://channel9.msdn.com/467565/WebViewBug.aspx?EVT=0Hello Jason, I noticed on your blog that your are foraying into F# and can see why now.
