I have Visual Studio for my Business Intelligence tools, how do I add C# to it?

839 views Asked by At

Excuse the ignorance, but I've been a BI/SQL Developer all my life, and recently have been more interested in getting better with C#, I thought I'd fire it up and start playing with it. I thought it was supposed to be included in my Visual Studio package that I have for BI, but when I go to File > New > Project, a New C# project is not something that is available there. How do I add it?

Run the VS installation and add the required components, assuming that your VS package has them.

Your best bet would be to reinstall a professional or premium version of VS. When you install select that you want all the packages so you can program in C#, VB, C++ ect.

here is a link to VS: http://www.visualstudio.com/

This link is a direct download link to a VS_Professional version download from the website:

You can't unless you install the correct version of Visual Studio. But you can try instead the new Visual Studio 2013 Community with Update 4

It is the latest IDE completely free with no license required that includes all the tools including C# development
