Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition 9.0 for Windows

Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition is a development studio for student and beginner programmers where they can create all kinds of programs for Windows.

With this light version of Visual Basic you can use tools that take advantage of the APIs in Windows Vista, that transmit data via the Internet using P2P, or that integrate video and audio in the forms.

There’s even more. If you use the SQL Server Compact Edition database engine from Microsoft, you can create programs with data access.

Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition is part of a suite of the light versions of Microsoft’s development studios, which are:

- Microsoft Visual C 2008 Express Edition

- Microsoft Visual C 2008 Express Edition

- Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition

The installation program will allow you to add to Visual Basic other packets that are very useful for program development: the help library from MSDN Express, Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, and the runtime library in Silverlight.
