Where Can I Download VS2005 Express?

I have VS2005 Pro on my PC at home and need to run Crystal Reports, but CR wants a Pro license.

I'm assuming I can run CR on the Express version.

I cannot find the VS2005 Express Download on MS's site.

Does anyone know where I can download it?

Are there any problems having both versions on the same PC?

Thanks,

Dennis

Hi Dennis,
VS2005 Express versions are no longer available for download from the MS site, you can find VS 2008 Express versions at http://www.microsoft.com/expressMy understanding is that Crystal Reports is not included in the Express versions.

Both versions of Visual Studio on the same PCwill workfine.

If you are interested, you can also try the Beta versions of VS2010 available at http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2010/default.mspx

Thanks,
Veronica
