Hi Peter,
I too suffer from this problem. The only solution that seemed to work
was to install a VS2010 extension that gave me the option (sorry, can't
remember which), plus a lot of other features I didn't want and couldn't
turn off. I don't like having extensions and add-ins clogging my VS
experience and this one was particularly intrusive so I ended up just
having regular Windows shortcuts to the projects I work on.
Carl.

Subject: Opening Blend 4 from Visual Studio
I would like to edit my xaml files in Blend 4 from within VS2010.
One would normally right click one's xaml file and select "Open in
Expression Blend"
However I do not get that context menu option.
Looking at http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=199772212592
There should be a registry key entry at
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Expression\Blend\VS]
With a string value for BlendLaunchPath set to the correct path.
I used RegEdit and found that it was set to "C:\Program Files
(x86)\Microsoft Expression\Blend 4\Blend.exe"
Which is correct.
However the context menu option for expression blend does not appear
when right clicking on a xaml file in VS2010.
Anything else one can try?
