Help getting started Visual C#

OK I am missing something simple I know but I have searched and I cannot seem to even get started.

 

I am looking to start to develop some c# programs to interface with some test equipment but all the information on getting Visual studio working with NI-VISA is either dated, or I just don't see what I am doing wrong.  I have done this in the past using VB.NET and key sights SCPI.NET but we don't have everything keysight, so time to learn something better...

 

From what I have read I have to add NationInstruments.Visa and Ivi.Visa assemblies.  Got that part, but after this, I just need a good walkthrough of how to connect to an instrument and send commands.  I look at the examples, but they are not commented very well so here I am.  

 

Does anyone have some good resources for that start from the beginning?
