Default Differences between Express and Pro?

Hi guys and gals..
Can someone tell me what the big differences are between the express and developer editions of VB? Also, can one use the express edition to sell an application? Just curious..

Thanks
Tim

Hi Tim,

I am new to VB 2005 as well, and have used both Pro and Express to deliver apps to some of my clients. I think Pro just includes some additional features, but as far as selling applications, I don't recall anything in the license that would preclude you from doing that. I think Microsofts plan is just increased market share, and hopefully getting more developers to use Visual Studio - as long as they are giving it away, they have my vote.
