Visual C# Express Edition provides many keyboard shortcuts: the more you know, the faster you can work.
Of course, the most important keyboard shortcuts are F5, which builds and starts your application, and F1, which starts online Help. You can download a poster that contains all the default keybindings (grouped by task) for Visual C# on the Microsoft download center.
