回答1:
The projects are the same - you can even arbitrarily switch between the applications at any time (given both applications are installed).
Expression Blend has much better visual designer and is purposed for UI designers and artists, Visual Studio is better for writing the C# code behind and is meant for programmers.
回答2:
Blend is used to Design XAML screens. Generally, designers prefer Blend over Visual Studio.
And since both (Programmers and Designers) can work on same project, Blend supports creating and opening VS projects.
