how to export Visual Studio 2013 project into sourcecode - vb.net

Could anyone please help and tell me how to export visual studio project into source code. My client has asked me if they can see a file with source code, so that they are able to recreate the application by using the source code only.
Could you please advise and tell me how I can export the visual studio project into source code, which will include all of the files, code and etc.

Are you sure they don't mean check it into source code control?
For example you can link your Visual Studio project up to TFS, check in your code and other developers can download and work on it in Visual Studio

Modifying and running VB.net project in Visual Studio Code?

Is it possible to modify and run existing VB Visual Studio 2010 projects in Visual Studio Code? I have some VB.NET projects that I would like to open in visual studio code and I haven't found anything online that says whether or not this is possible. Drag and drop functionality isn't necessary for me, I only care about being able to run the source code.
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 if that makes any difference.
Thanks in advance!
You can use Visual Studio Code to edit any text file you want.

Visual Studio 2015 - a lot of Packages are missing

So I recently bought a new computer. And now I wanted to install visual studio 2015. So I did. But now the problem is that i cant create a new project because i cant select a vb.net form or anything else and also im getting these error messages saying:
The 'ErrorListPackage' package did not load correctly
The'VisualStudioPackage' package did not load correctly
The Microsoft.visual studio package did not load correctly
anyone has a solution for this? because I'm kinda getting a bit frustrated now.
I tried a complete uninstall and install and it didnt work. I tried copying folders from my laptop to my new pc but also that didn't work. Also switching frameworks doesn't do anything. I also never experienced this problem before but can this problem occure because I have 2 drives?? Seems odd but I think I'm also going to do an uninstall again and then try the .iso installer and see if that helps.
So this is how I fixed it for myself.
I removed all files and folders that are linked to visual studio
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0
C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio
C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio
C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio Services
C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VSCommon
C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VsGraphics
After I deleted all of those folders I deleted the regkeys located:
HKLM > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > Visual Studio
After that I started the visual studio installer with admin rights.
And now I can create a project :)
This usually indicates an issue with an extension which ships with some dependent assemblies which Visual Studio itself (or another extension) also depends on. When these dependencies are different versions, it's not predictable which version will load.
To solve your problem, first disable your extensions and add-ins, then close Visual Studio, clear the ComponentModelCache folder under:
C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache
And start Visual Studio again.
This should clear the immediate issue.
Now enable each extension one-by-one restarting Visual Studio every time to see if the issues come back.
To dive deeper into the underlying issue, you could look into all the extensions under these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions
C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\Extensions
Look for assemblies from Microsoft itself (commonly found are Microsoft.TeamFoundation.* and Microsoft.VisualStudio. in folders containing an extension that did not originate from Microsoft. These extensions are common culprits for these issues.
If you want to dig deeper, consider using fuslogvw from the Windows SDK to see which assemblies are loaded and which exact versions they are. You can also look into the Visual Studio logs after the issue surfaces to see what underlying cause there may be. The log should be available under:
%AppData%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\ActivityLog.XML

vs 2008 broken snippets functionality

Is there a way to reset to the original vb.net snippets that came along with visual studio 2008?
I recently installed a purchased third party lib, that managed to break almost all the default snippets.
I can see that the snippets do physically exist in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VB\Snippets\1033 but only the following sections are loaded to vs 2008:
application
office development
os
wpf
Any help would be appreciated...
Found a solution !!!
I went to tools > Code snippet Manager
and re-added the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VB\Snippets\1033 folder
Everything works great now !!!
You can try to reset the IDE-settings by calling it with /resetsettings
It sounds like your SnippetIndex file is broken. There should be a file at the directory you listed named SnippetIndex.xml. This is the file that is consulted in order to build the initial list of snippets. Can you check that file and see how big it is. It should be at least 500+ lines (mine is 579).
If it's less then this is almost certainly your problem. You can fix this by repairing the Visual Studio install
Go to Control Panel -> Add Remove Programs
Select Visual Studio
Choose Repair
