[DUG] [DUG-OFFTOPIC] Visual Studio Training

[Jeremy Coulter]

first thing I did in VS was change the function keys to the same as Delphi,
i.e. F9 to compile rather than F5. I switch between C# and Delphi almost
daily, and it keeps the blood pressure down not having break points turn up
when you want to run something :-)  still think Delphi's IDE is better :-)
