Web/Windows Service with VB 2005 express?

[kimiraikkonen]

Hi,
Using VB 2005 express edition, i couldn't find any option to start a
new web and windows service. I read a comparison table a long time
before but i couldn't find it right now. Is it a limitation of Express
edition of VB 2005?

Thanks

I believe you need the Web Developer Express. That is how 2008 is set up,
and it appears from what I found online to be the same for 2005.

I'm pretty sure that the window's service is a template only available
in standard edition or above. This does not however prevent you from
writing one, you just won't have the template to get started on. Like
Mike mentions, the web service template should be available in VWD,
which also has a free express edition.
