I have a computer at home with a (slow) dialup connection and a computer at
school with a fast connection.
I want to go there (it is not close) and down load Vb2008 express, burn it
into a CD, bring it home and install it on my home computer.
Someone told me it can't be done.
Is there a way of doing that?
Thanks 6 2654

You can download the offline installer here:

However, AFAIS this is a 894 MB ISO file including all of the Express
editions which doesn't fit on a CD. You'll have to burn it onto a DVD.

Thanks I'll burn a dvd.
I can't figure out getting the Express software for nothing.
Must be something missing.
Why would I buy VS2008?
What is in vs2008 that is not in the Express collection you showed me?
Thanks

Mike,
No problem :-) I just wondered if there are small but important class
absences of .NET in express edition. I looked at a comparison table
about various editions of VS, didn't found particular info related to
this, only saw differences about platforms like service / framework
etc.
Are all the classes available in express within the same framework
version?
To the best of my knowledge, the framework and it's classes are identical to
the full Visual Studio.

Is there any absence of .NET's namespaces and classes in express
edition when compared to paid editions?
(I think it's very import due to functionality of applications)
The .NET Framework is the same. However, Express editions are lacking some
project templates, designers, and custom libraries such as Crystal Reports,
which are only included in some of the "bigger" versions of VS.

The .NET Framework is the same.
Exactly.
In reality all you need to write a .NET application is a text editor
(such as Notepad) and vbc.exe which ships with the framework.
Visual Studio, any edition, is NOT required like it was with VB
classic. The IDE just gives us tools to make writing the programs
easier, and obviously the higher version you buy, the more tools you
get.
