I am going through a book on VB that uses visual studio 2003, using visual basic 2005 express edition. But it seems that in express edtion the user is unable to create a solution within which multiple projects can reside.

There is no option in templates to create a solution in express edition, is this right or am I doing something wrong TIA

    If anyone as MSFT is watching, it would be nice to have an exhaustive list of differences that Express has with the other editions. The outlined comparisions like http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/compare/default.aspx don't list all the differences. I learn of a minute difference almost daily.

    You've got that right :)

    However it is possible to install VB Express with VS Professional: they don't appear to 'corrupt' one another, based on comparisons with another machine with just VB Express, and another machine with just VS Pro.

    You cannot create a solution from scratch (I believe), but you can add multiple projects and 'create' a solution.

    you can see some additional overall differences between versions (Express, Standard, Pro, etc.) here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/compare/default.aspx
