What is the target release month for Visual Studio 2008?
Great Video! Are there any enhancements to Smart Clients / Click Once? One of the things I wish gets added is forms based authentication for click once apps i.e. if I launch a click once app from an already authenticated ASP.NET page, it should work fine,
else should give an appropriate error.
Thanks,

Good attempt, MS! Even Beta1 must me workabe enough.
You have PERFECT testers!

My heart sank yesterday when I tried this with the Visual C# Codename "Orcas" Express Edition CTP, and I determined that It would just a matter of time before another user encountered the error. the steps are,
FILE->NEW PROJECT->WPF APPLICATION->OK..............
The error message is: The project file 'c:\Documents and Settings\My Name\Local Settings\Temp\WPFApplication1.csproj' cannot be opened.
The project type is not supported by this installation...OK? - HELP?
Similar error encountered when attaempting creation of a WPFBrowser App, steps are,
FILE->NEW PROJECT->WPF BROWSER APPLICATION->OK..............
The error message is: The project file 'c:\Documents and Settings\My Name\Local Settings\Temp\JSJ1Q5NK.ZCZ\temp\WPFBrowserApplication1.csproj' cannot be opened.
The project type is not supported by this installation...OK? - HELP?
I know this is just the Express CTP but if the problem is prevalent and pervades the full Orcas beta 1, please save me the time and effort and advise this thread!
VWD Express "Orcas" appears fine though with the new WCFService and Expression Web editing tools. Best of all changing between design-split-code views is brisk!

You understand what beta means? right?

1) Open a cmd window at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE
2) Type "regsvr32.exe ProjectAggregator.dll".
the only remaining issue that i have found is the lack of a workflow designer, or assemblies and i have not received any kind of answer if this will be available or not.

If you’re having problems creating WPF or WPF browser applications with Visual C# Express and Visual Basic Express, you may be running into an issue that we know about (https://blogs.msdn.com/johnmont/archive/2007/04/19/visual-studio-express-quot-orcas-quot-available.aspx). We expect to have a patch for this issue, specific to creating WPF or WPF browser application from VC# Express or VB Express, available shortly. If you’re having other issues, please do visit https://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowForum.aspx?ForumID=169&SiteID=1.

I hope their will be an ongoing engagement to improve the designer in future versions, because designing a nice web interface is still somewhat a hassle in Visual Studio, and not every firm has the luxury of having a designer team at their service.
I worked already a bit with Expression Web, and it's an intuitive css designer indeed. Something I do miss a lot in Visual Studio 2005, is Intellisense for your style definitions, so that if you add a style-class to an html element, you don't have to look up every time your style classes in the css-stylesheet. This is a feature that is already for a long time available in other html-designers (ie DreamWeaver), but luckily it's now alsow available in Expression Web.
Concerning the Orcas demo, I saw Guthrie demonstrate Orcas live in Belgium (Mechelen).

Soma's enthusiasm made the interview quite enjoyable. It is good to have a separate beta for the express editions. Although there are some bugs, my experience so far has been pretty good. It is good to have the WPF visual designer and it looks like WF
designer is also included. However, the situation with the Entity Framework is unclear. The samples can be compiled with the express edition and they seem to work. But the documentation and the command line tool needed to generate the framework files (edmGen.exe)
are not included.
Is the plan to restrict the EDM support to the professional versions of Visual Studio? I can see the argument for doing that and I expect I would be quite satisified playing with SqlMetal.exe and linq to SQL. On the other hand, I suspect that it is to Microsoft's
advantage to try to make the entity framework the standard API for data driven applications as quickly as possible. In any case, there needs to be clarity about what is in what edition and what is not.
Are we going to be able to work with VS2003 projects without converting them at a later date or was the line about "Did you know you can write VS2003/2005 applications in Orcas?" just a mistake?
VS2005 and Orcas are much better tools, but my company has some large projects that were started before 2.0 shipped and moving them to 2.0 isn't feasable. I was really excited when I saw that Orcas was supposed to be able to compile to 1.1 apps, but my bubble
was burst after installing the beta. (Which only finally showed up on my subscriber downloads last night)
Please let us know if compiling to 1.1 will be an option. I am sure I am not alone on this.

Hi Soma -
I glad to know someone who is informed. Can you direct me to where I can help on my problem below.
A visual studio Just-In-Time Debugger message ( An unhandled win32 exception failed. No installed debugger has Just in time enabled) pops up whenever I attempt to launch any program on my computer. I am running windows 2k server. Can I make a change to
registry or is their a quick fix out to address this problem?
Thanks[C]
