What are the VB.NET 2005 features mean?

[ljCharlie]

I found this page, http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/compare/, and there are a couple of questions I have.

Under the Feature column, what is "User experience"? What is Full compare to Simplified menu options and defautls? Will anyone explain what SQL Server Integration is? What can and can't I do if I do or don't have SQL Server Integration? If I don't have XML Editor Support, is that mean any creation of XML file will have to be done outside of VB.NET standard edition?

Thank you for any suggestions.

If you don't know what it is, there is a slight chance you don't need it. You also got the opportunity to try out Pro for instance http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/trial/default.aspx

The reason I asked is because I might need that in the future. Again, I do not want to go back to my supervisor and say I need another edition because this edition lacks this. I know for sure that I will use XML and XSLT but just not sure when and how often I will need an editor for that. As for the SQL server integration, I'm just not sure what they mean integration because the demo I've seen for Express edition it does interact with SQL server...just not sure how integrated it is.
