One frustrating issue that we faced was that VS2008 cannot be used to develop SharePoint workflows on 64-bit Windows systems. Selecting any of the SharePoint workflow templates from the menu returns an “Object reference not set to an instance of an object” error. After searching a lot, I came across a bug reported by someone who faced the same problem.
https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=325668 The reason mentioned for this bug by Microsoft is a lack of resource and an assurance that it will be solved in the future releases.
Since we already had the setup on a 64-bit machine, the workaround we used was to download sample workflow examples from the internet and modify them according to our requirements.
