Hi Grisha,

As long as your device is supported by the DAQmx driver, then you will be able to use the device with VS 2005. Here is a link which lists the different USB Devices and which drivers support them: DAQ Driver Support. If your device is supported by the DAQmx driver, then the best place to start programming will be the shipping examples that come with the DAQmx driver. The C# examples are located in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MeasurementStudioVS2003\DotNET\Examples\DAQmx.

While Measurement Studio is great for helping develop user interfaces etc, it is not necessary to program DAQ applications with VS 2005. Also, I recommend submitting your second post on a LabVIEW Discussion forum.
