    Visual Studio 2005 - how to change the default environment selection

    Did you do something like I just did?  I'd just gotten VS2005 installed on my work machine and I wanted to set it up as a web developer environment, but I'd accidentally chosen general.  Looking for how to change this?  Check this link for details on how to fix this mistake: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/f1z20s6z(en-US,VS.80).aspx  Notice that this also allows you to export your settings so the development manager can create the environment for the entire team base on one machine's settings.  Great for standardization in a multi-developer environment.

    I haven't tried it since beta 1 when it didn't work, but theat feature should be good for switching between presentation and development modes for those of us who do both frequently.

    I think that you might find the post where I referenced a Visual Studio macro more helpful in switching between presentation and development modes. This change in environment seems to be aimed at switching between C#, VB, and custom screen organizations.
