visual basic express edition is free for use. infact all of express edition is free. you only need downloading capacity.

my college said that they hav bought it for 6K...

^^ there are various editions of visual studio.
but express edition is free.
*msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/
u can download that from microsoft's website free of charge.
and i dont think any edition of visual studio can come for as low as 6k.

Express Edition is freeware

u can download it

n its not pirated

it is a light version for learners basically

i dont know if all features r available in express edition

M$ gave free Visual Studio + DirectX 9 SDK + Win XP Pro in my cousins college for free some 2-3 years back. So I dont think this VS edition can be pirated.

Express Editions are Free to use, Download them from here, though u would need a Passport ID to login and download, (which is free, basically any Hotmail account is a password ID )

VB 2005
VS 2005

Try them, though these are Feature limited, but as a student for lkearning purpose, u wont feel the need unless developming a Pro application !!!!!!

I too know that it's not pirated, but i'm asking how do i download them becoz its tooooooooo large for me to download them???????

What Connection do u have ???

 

[QwertyManiac]

Try a net cafe will you?

 

[anmol004]

I have a broadband connection.

 

[cynosure]

^^ If its Airtel then go for the 99 topup and download the CD from 9pm to 8am.
In BSNL 2-8 is free.
A 700MB CD will take aroung 2-3 days on a 128kbps conxn.

OR
Try asking for any college student [CSE] if M$ provided any developers CDs.

If u have broadband then what's the problem dear ?

If u have broadband then what's the problem dear ?

may be his connection has a poor data cap, like Home 250

anyway I support what cynosure,

Try asking for any college student [CSE] if M$ provided any developers CDs.

ask ur class mates or any college senior, as any of them should have the software !!!

Or the better idea will be to arrange Digit's CD or DVD in which they gave VB2005 express edition.
