VS2005 NEWBIE: New Projects missing almost everything?

Dear Experts,

I'm trying VS (2005) for the first time, trying to follow tutorials.  When I go into New > Project, I'm seeing just a couple of strange project types, nothing like what the tutorials say.  For instance, I'm not seeing "ASP.NET Web Application".  I'd like to write my first C# class (moving over from Java...)  But I can't even get to "Hello, world" !

I think this is a trial version my company installed.  Did we miss something?

Thanks!

When you open VS 2005 and go to File->New->Project a dialog appears.

What does it contain in the right hand side panel?
It should contain a tree structure that has

Visual Basic
Visual C#
visual J#
...

That should have been left hand panel. Sorry
Try this

Tools -> Import and Export Settings
Reset all settings
Click Next
Click Next
Then choose "Web Development Settings".

After you choose this, you should see more "things" on web.

That's what I'm saying.  It does NOT contain any of the things you've mentioned.  No "New Website", no "Visual C#".

For some reason, it shows only:

Business Intelligence Projects
Other
     Visual Studio Solutions

Read my comment above to reset some settings.

You folks responded THREE times in the time it took me to post my last post.  (You're FAST.)  I'll try your suggestion...

When I try this:

Tools -> Import and Export Settings
Reset all settings
Click Next
Click Next
Then choose "Web Development Settings".

I don't see "Web Development Settings".  I just see "Business Intelligence Settings" and "General Development Settings".  I tried switching to "General", but it didn't help.

OK.  Looks like we need to back up and start over.  Thanks very much for you help, folks.
