When I right click on a project in my solution and go into the properties, I don't see the Compile tab on the left. I see Application, Build, Build Events and then the next one is Debug.
I've Googled for this but couldn't find anything, and also couldn't find anything here. Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Many thanks!
You can find Properties Window on the View menu. You can also open it by pressing F4 or by typing Properties in the search box. The Properties window displays different types of editing fields, depending on the needs of a particular property.
In Visual Studio, you can access project settings by right-clciking the projects node in Solution Explorer, and choosing "Properties" from the context menu (not to be confused with the "Properties" folder that is in some Elements projects).
To open the Settings editor, use the following VS Code menu command: On Windows/Linux - File > Preferences > Settings. On macOS - Code > Preferences > Settings.
The Compile tab shows up for Visual Basic projects, but not for C# projects. For Visual Basic it mainly houses constructs specific to VB, like OPTION EXPLICIT, but there are elements like target platform that are found on the Build tab for C#. The target framework, available under the Advanced Compile Options of the Visual Basic Compile tab is found on the C# Application tab.
UPDATE: With Update 2 of Visual Studio 2012 I'm now seeing Target Framework for a VB project also in the Application tab.
