After you download VS or any of the express modules you need to download and install the JAWS Scripts if you use JAWS, Windoweyes will work pretty well out of the box for versions of VS prior to 2010 until Windoweyes comes out with it's next release. Then you need to set up Visual Studio for accessibility by setting options in that same place where you checked the checkbox to use local help instead of online help. That was under the Tools>Options of the Menu Bar. There are a ton of things to set to get the IDE to work the way you want. There are articles floating around the web on some of the folks websites that tell you how to do this in a step by step fashon.. I used the Express modules and Windoweyes to code in Vb.net and Visual Web Developer. I do not use CSharp, just a personal choice.

I downloaded and installed it. I also installed msdn libraries, because someone told me that it is infact the documentation for the language. But I don't find exactly how to learn. When I open the program, I get the window where I can choose some learning options like "learning center" etc, but as I see, everything is online. I found somewhere and checked the option that my primary help should be the offline, local help, but whenever I press the f1 or try to get the help in any way, I get the message that there is no information. So, how to start learning? And, if possible, offline? Many thanks, and excuse me as for many of you my questions are still very basic. Thanks once again, and best regards!
