Taken fromhttp://www.howtoselectguides.com/dot...ualstudio2005/

Visual Studio 2005 comes in five major versions:

* Visual Studio 2005 Express Editions
* Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition
* Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition
* Visual Studio 2005 Tools for the Microsoft Office System
* Visual Studio 2005 Team System

Each of these editions of the product has different features. For example, the Express Editions do not support the source code control interface that allows you to use Microsoft Visual SourceSafe or other source code control providers, and the Team System is the only version that includes code profiling and unit testing tools. Microsoft has provided a handy Visual Studio 2005 Product Line Overview comparison chart to let you quickly compare the features of the various editions so that you can make an informed decision.

May this helps

Regards

It's marketing. The more you pay the more features you get.

However, the underlying compiler (cl.exe) is always Version 8.
