Default implementation language for distributed system designers

    Hi Carl,
    Visual Basic is the default if all languages are installed. In you uninstalled VB, Visual C# would become the default language. Unfortunately, C++ support will not be enabled. This was something we wanted to enable, but were not able to in the time available.

    Another option for creating a C#-based app is to make an application prototype with the correct language and add it to the Toolbox. To do this for an ASP.NET Web Application, you would do the following:
    1. Add an ASP.NET Web application to the application diagram.
    2. With the Web application selected, change the Language property to Visual C# in the Properties window.
    3. Right-click the application and choose Add to Toolbox. Provide a name for the new prototype and click OK.

    You now have a C#-based ASP.NET Web App prototype available in your Toolbox. This prototype will be available to add to any application diagram you create. You can find more information about creating custom prototypes in the documentation here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/library/ms181862(en-us,vs.80).aspx

    Yes. In the Application Connection diagram, use the context menu for the selected application to display a dialog where you can change the target language.

    Yes, I know that.

    What I'm asking is can I change the default so that all new applications come up with C# selected instead of VB.NET, or am I forced to remember to make that change for every application I create
