The first time you run Visual Studio 2008, you will see the splash screen only for a short period before
you are prompted to select the default environment settings. It may seem unusual to ask those who
haven ’ t used a product before how they imagine themselves using it. As Microsoft has consolidated a
number of languages and technologies into a single IDE, that IDE must account for the subtle (and
sometimes not so subtle) differences in the way developers work.

If you take a moment to review the various options in this list, as shown in Figure 1 - 2 , you ’ ll find that the
environment settings that will be affected include the position and visibility of various windows, menus,
and toolbars, and even keyboard shortcuts. For example, if you select the General Development Settings
option as your default preference, this screen describes the changes that will be applied.

A tip for Visual Basic .NET developers coming from previous versions of Visual Studio is that they
should NOT use the Visual Basic Development Settings option. This option has been configured for
VB6 developers and will only infuriate Visual Basic .NET developers, as they will be used to different
shortcut key mappings. We recommend that you use the general development settings, as these will use
the standard keyboard mappings without being geared toward another development language.
