If you really want to learn the details of programming with Visual Studio, I highly recommend the series from Learn Visual Studio. It is an awesome site for learning Visual Studio, and they allow you to download several videos for free to try it out. I personally have a Lifetime Subscription and have spent 100s of hours watching their videos. I am very pleased with the amount of information that they provide, and I believe it is an extremely good value. Most live training classes and video tutorials for Visual Studio cost around $25 per hour (see AppDev.com, Learnkey.com, etc.), but Learn Visual Studio only costs about 70 cents per hour of video. Also, if you want to save 30% off the retail price of Learn Visual Studio, please click on the link provided at the beginning of this paragraph.

There is an index of over 700 video tutorials on various programming languages and databases at this post.
