Registering Visual Studio?

When registering visual studio (C++, C#, Basic) I am prompted for a "Portal Code". I have no idea what a portal code is and I have no idea how I'd acquire one.

And yes, I am using Visual Studio Express.

Thank you for your time in reading this brief query Microsoft.

I'll check our registration wizard now to confirm, but I think your reading that incorrectly, it should be Postal Code aka Zip code. If it doesn't, then it's our typo

Hope this helps,

Thanks for fixing the typo. Maybe in the future you could include zip code in paranthesis following postal code to eliminate any change of confusion :)
