Does VS 2010 Pro have VB 2010? Will VB 6 run in Windows 7 XP-compatibility mode? - vba

I have Visual Basic 6 Pro sp6, and I am wondering does Visual Studio 2010 Pro
have the Visual Basic 2010. It seems that I encounter Visual C only when I
look at this online.
Another question. Will the Visual Basic 6 IDE run in Windows 7-Win XP mode?

Yes, all paid editions of Visual Studio 2010 support all mainstream .NET languages (Namely C# and VB.NET). Note though that VB.NET in Visual Studio 2002 onwards is significantly different from Visual Basic 6.

Visual Studio Express 2015 for windows 10 does't have visual basic form template

I can't find that, is there a problem? Please I can't find it not even in the C# or C++ or javascript, please HELP!
Visual Studio Express 2015 for Windows targets the Universal Windows Platform, not WinForms. For WinForms you'll need Visual Studio Express 2015 for Desktop or Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition.
If you meet it's licensing requirements I'd recommend the Community Edition.

visual studio 2015 office 2007

my job is to maintain a word-addin, created many years ago, developed by many young programmers like me ;) the addin works fine and there are only a few and easy changes to do from time to time, so my task is to bring the development environment up to date.
The addin was handed over to me as an visual basic project with Visual Studio 2005(in XP-Mode) and a .dot-file
Now I wanted to use Visual Studio 2015, but when I tried to migrate the project there is an error which says the word-version i'm using is not supported by VS2015 and tells me to use Office 2010 minimum. The problem is, my company just uses Office(Word) 2007.
So how can i get VS2015 to migrate the project properly and to use word 2007? Or do I have to use 2010? I read 2010-addins can be used in 2007 and via versa, so this should not be the problem.
Following software is installed:
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 SP2
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 SP2
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
Microsoft .NET Framework 4/4.5/4.5.1/4.5.2/4.6
Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2015
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime
Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office Second Edition Runtime
Visual Studio 2015 Community
Microsoft Office Word 2007
thanks for help :) and please excuse my bad english
The short answer is that you cannot use Visual Studio 2015 to open the original project, but you can recreate the code in a new project that will still work with Office 2007:

How to enable Visual Basic support for XNA game studio?

I did read that with the latest version of XNA Game Studio Visual Basic support was added. I downloaded XNA Game Studio 4.0 Refresh and installed it. Source: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=27599. But it only added the XNA Visual Studio templates to Visual C# 2010 Express and not to Visual Basic 2010 Express. Both IDEs are up to date (SP1). How can I enable XNA support for Visual Basic also?
Thanks for your help

Visual Studio 2010 SP1 incompatible with Windows 8?

I ran Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant on my laptop today, and I saw something very interesting. Visual Studio 2010 SP1 is not compatible with Windows 8, but Visual Studio 2010 (no service pack) is compatible.
Does Visual Studio 2010 SP1 work on Windows 8? If not, are there just a few specific functions that do not work correctly, or does it just crash and burn and become unusable?
Compatibilty Center listed out that Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 SP1 is not compatible with Windows 8. But Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate SP1, Visual Studio 2010 Professional SP1, Visual Studio 2010 Premium SP1 are compatible with Windows 8.
Which version of Visual Studio you are using?
Visit the Compatibility Center for more details about application compatibility.
