Without some more detail including your source this does not qualify as a question.

Visual Studio is an IDE (integrated development environment) and has nothing to do with being "interpreted".

"interpreted" means that the runtime executing the code will evaluate instructions as they come, and will do no pre-processing.

.net is a compiled virtual machine runtime and is not interpreted.

Even javascript in the V8 runtime is compiled albeit in a just-in-time way.
