I am trying to add VB and C# as well as Silverlight4 to VS2010. Can someone please help me with this? I have tried searching the web but I am not coming up with any answers.

Thanks!

What you mean in adding? You can use VS for VB, C#, Silverlight, just make projects

might be using an express edition or something,
Visual C# Express for example wouldn't allow VB projects.

Which edition of visual studio are you talking about?

If you are using the express edition, you have to download each version individually(the VB version, the C# version, etc.)

It should be noted that there are other options as well. And while I won't get into the "Visual Studio is much better talk", I personally think that Sharp Develop is a very viable option for most people.

Go Grab the Windows SDK From Microsoft's site Windows SDK: Download the Windows SDK for Windows 7 and More | MSDN
and then go drab a copy of SharpDevelop SharpDevelop @ic#code

If you read in the downloads section, you will find there is additional software that can be downloaded for additional features, (like F# support and FXCop integration)

But this is a very easy way to get set up and running with C# or VB, and it's all free.
