Whats the difference ? MS Visual C++ Express vs. MS Visual C++?

The express versions of the various micosoft DEs (Development Environments) are good for people who want to learn to use a language rather than develop real code.





You can download copies from the Microsoft Website.





The main disadvantage is you can't download old versions, to go along with text books and so on. However at school or university this is what you are likely to use when you write the code.





Main problem is they lack various essential elements to make fully fledged applications for development. They also lack other features as well.

Whats the difference ? MS Visual C++ Express vs. MS Visual C++?
C++ Express is a free IDE where you can code C++ programs, but it doesn't have a whole lot of features in it.





Visual Studio Professional has a lot of features which can help aid in development, but costs a bit of money.
