Menu
I closed the call stack and other default windows in VS2008. How do I get them back? I expected to find a command under the View menu, or atleast under the View\Other Windows menu. Nothing. Thanks.

To display the call stack window you must first start your code in debug mode. Either start your application using the Step Into command or use a breakpoint to halt execution. You can then show the window by opening the "Debug" menu, expanding its "Windows" submenu and selecting "Call Stack".
While Visual Studio is in debug mode, select the Debug menu, point to Windows, and then select Threads.
The Watch Window. The Watch Window allows you to see value of variables and expressions while debugging. It's kind of like the DataTip you get when hovering over a variable, except that you can write any expression you want. It's available from Debug | Windows | Watch | Watch 1 or Ctrl + Alt + W + 1.
Press Shift + F11 (or Debug > Step Out). This command resumes app execution (and advances the debugger) until the current function returns.
Try the Debug menu, then Windows.

Some windows may only be available when you are in debug mode. Try running your project and then hit the Debug->Windows menu. You should see Call Stack, Immediate, etc.
