Hi:
What exactly are the MS Visual Studio Express Editions.
There are various product "Express Editions" available:
e.g., Visual Basic 2008, Visual C++ 2008, Visual C# 2008, ...
and, what does the "2008" qualifier on these products mean ?
Is there any "special" significance to the 2008 editions ?
Are there ant limitations on these Express Editions ?
How do they differ from their corresponding Standard or Professional Edition ?

Thank you...

Dale
