Visual Studio 2008 Editions

Hello,

I'm searching for a feature comparation table of visual studio
versions (express, standard and professional).
Somebody know real differences of various VS editions?

What feature are missing in express edition?

Thanks in advance

Not sure about the express editions, but here's a comparision between
Standard and Professional:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/vs2.../bb980920.aspx
The express editions are probably quite similar to Standard, but are split
into different products. You won't get integrated source control in the
express editions.

Standard is a conglomeration of the express skus, essentially. If you have
all of the Express products, you have most of standard.

One bit that will work in standard that does not work in Express is
multi-project solutions. You can only run one project at a time.

I am not sure there is a precise comparison between express and other skus.

You can actually have multiple projects defined in one express solution. You
cannot have multiple languages, nor can you create depoloyment & setup
projects. You can develop a main app project with multiple supporting class
libraries.

I thought it was only one project, so you have given me some good news.

I guess I should amend this to say: You cannot edit both a web application
and a class library in the same instance, as Web Developer Express does not
allow you to edit class library projects.

Goodmorning, within year-end I must buy some licences of Visual Study 2005, and I cannot wait for the escape of Visual Study 2008... Someone knows if they are available "promotions" or other that concur, with the purchase of every licence of 2005, the successive upgrade to 2008? (obviously comprised in the price and not paying the upgrade subsequently!) Thanks

So, what is the relationship between Visual Studio and Visual Web Developer. I find a lot of documentation on MSDN that presents Visual Web Developer as it's own stand-alone product (which I'd expect of the Express editions), but apparently there are NON Express versions of Visual Web Developer. Is Visual Web Developer only built-in to Visual Studio 2008 Professional? I see "Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008" listed as an installed...
