Beginning VB2010 with VB2010 Express

Can I use the free VB 2010 Express with the exercises in Beginning VB 2010 by Willis and Newsome. The books introduction seems to say no one place and yes another.

If I can use Express, are there limits as it relates to the book exercises?

Thanks,
Dick

Most of the Chapters can be done in VB 2010 Express or Visual Web Developer Express editions. In some cases you would need to install additional templates and in the setup chapter you may not be able to complete all of the examples. You can install a trial version of the full featured product as well although it has a time limit. To get an idea of what is missing, see this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microso...Studio_Express

Thanks Bryan, I did see I can get 90 days free trial on VB 2010 but I don't want to start the clock before I have to.
