Programming with MicroStation SDK in C#

I have a customer who wants me to rewrite some VBA code used with MicroStation into C# and using Windows Forms. My customer has a copy of MicroStation installed but I don't so I understand that they will be responsible for testing the code that I develop.

I have downloaded and installed the MicroStation SDK from Bentley but I can't find the relevant references to add to Visual Studio that will allow me to develop against this SDK using C# and .NET.

You must have MicroStation installed to use the SDK.
There are many DLLs and assemblies that you won't have if you installed only the SDK.
There is a MicroStation Programming Forum where you will get focussed answers: http://communities.bentley.com/products/programming/microstation_programming/f/343173

The assemblies are only installed when you install MicroStation. Try installing the 30-day trial, then go look in the Extensions or .Net tabs in Add Extension.
