I think there is a typo error in the assemblyInfo.cs
"new line in constant" error means your not closing the quotation on the same 
line as where it was opened.

"Unrecognized escape sequence" 
Remember "\" is an escape character in c#, so if you want to include the "\" 
character in a string, escape it with another "\". For example:
"c:\\nirandas\\file.txt"
or 
@"c:\nirandas\file.txt"

Check the assemblyInfo.cs or just copy paste it here.

    To change the dev environment settings, go to 
    tools>import and export settings
    Regarding the test code, what is the exact error you are getting?

      Hi All.  How do I change my developer settings from one language to 
another in visual studio 2008?  I want to change my default programming 
environment from say, visual c++ to cSharp.  I am also finding it a problem to 
build and run a very simple test cSharp code.  I am sure my code is entirely 
right, but the error seems to be from within the assembly.cs file.  If anyone 
can spot an error in this 4 line test code, I'd like to know
      I have left out part of the generated code from the ide.
      {
      // Output test text to the screen
      Console.WriteLine("This is a test!");
      Console.ReadKey();
      }
      As far as i can see, the test code i have written should work just fine.
      O, I'm running Vs2008 on WinXp Pro on the .net3.5 platform.  Cheers!
