Regarding Programming with SQL Express and SQL Developer's Edition

When I bought my copy of Visual Studio it came with disks to install the
"developer' s edition" of MS SQL. However, while installing Visual
Studio, the Express version was automatically installed and I have been
using the express version with my C# programs.
My question is, what, if any, benefit would there be in installing the
developer's version instead of continuing to use the express version.

Thanks in advance for your responses. :)

"SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition and Evaluation Edition are not listed
in the tables. These editions have the same feature set as the
Enterprise Edition; the only difference between these editions is the
licensing policies."

Thank you for the fast reply and the link, Arne. That answered my
question perfectly, because I wasn't aware that Developer Edition was
functionally equivalent to Enterprise Edition.

Thank you for your assistance. :)

I don't know how much Microsoft is planning to price Visual Web Developer Express Edition. I heard rumors from free to $100. In my opinion I think it should make it free. The reason is to attract as many people to .NET and ASP.NET. This includes people who are in the Linux world using free IDE's like Eclipse and the people who are thinking of switching from Windows to Linux because Linux and Linux tools are free. Even if MS prices it at...
