Studio Standard
 Microsoft Visual Studio Professional or Standard edition? I am trying to decide between buying the Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition and the Standard Edition. I will be developing an add-in for Microsoft Excel that will perform some computations on the open spreadsheet, dump certain cells to a flat file, read the file into the payload of a SOAP message and perform a web service client call to another server. Probably will be encrypting the payload. What I'm trying to do it a little heavier than what VBA can handle. I will also want to sign the code. Then I will wrap the add-in inside an installer program to be distributed by CD or web download. Any advice? Which one should I buy? Sounds to me like you could do everything you need with Visual Studio 2005 Standard. The differences with Standard and Professional are some "user experience" differences, XSLT editor support, and which version of SQL Server is included. Sounds like you aren't even using XSLT or a SQL Server database in your project, but you might consider what you'll need from Visual Studio in the future. Both of them can create web service references. Depending on the complexity of your Office (Excel) development you may want to look into the Visual Studio tools for office. Here is the comparison table for all versions: Here is Visual Studio Tools for Office info: |

Neil Peart's Powerhouse Percussion Results In Third Consecutive Victory as Drummer Of The Year In Enter Music Publishing's Drummies Awards. Featured In DRUM! Magazine's August, 2009 Issue On Newsstands Now. SAN JOSE, Calif., -- Neil Peart's lucky number may just be three. He can definitely play in three; he has been part of a highly successful trio, Rush; and, he has now garnered his third consecutive victory as "Drummer Of The Year" in this year's Drummies. Additionally, he won "Best Progressive Drummer. Enter Music Publishing, publishers of hip, drum magazines worldwide, conducts The Drummies every year with voting open to anyone from February to May. This year 5,310 votes were cast in 41 drum/percussion categories ranging from "Best Drummer" to "Best Drum Advertisement". While Peart has successfully demonstrated his popularity in the last three Drummies, his margin of victory was less than in the last two years, according to Phil Hood, publisher and co-founder of DRUM! Magazine. Runner-up Travis Barker gave Peart a serious run and had been the most frequent winner (three victories) prior to Peart's popularity. Thus, Barker remains a very influential, popular drummer as well. About the Voting Peart's Popularity – A Rush of Publicity Online and Off Peart's success, in part, results from his innovative, progressive approach to drumming which is a hit with drummers in all demographics. Yes, he has proven his strong popularity in DRUM!, which is evident from the recent cover story in DRUM!, that was based on emails sent in from the Peart fan population. According to publisher Phil Hood, "Peart's success probably stems from the resurgence of Rush's popularity over the same time period that he has won the Drummies. There's no doubt that Rush's hyper drive back into mainstream success has propelled Peart to these victories," he notes.
