As long as you are using 2k8 (possibly 2k5 as well) it should work okay for the most part. There are a few areas that don't function well, such as the project and class wizards, but the basic editor works well. 2k3 (and I am guessing 2k2) don't work well at all, but you shouldn't have an express of either of those. I am not sure at all about 2k10 though. Check the Speech and Sounds manager and ensure you have one of the VS profiles selected. I also like setting up an all caps and single caps voice for use in such contexts, with all punctuation spoken and caps not ignored. I recently switched from express to standard and did have problems after installing service pack 1. Those went away after I started using the experimental hive enabled by the visual studio integration pack. I'm not sure if either of those packages/concerns apply to the express editions however. I also don't see anything in the INS+V dialog that obviously applies. You could always try the replacement scripts from empowerment zone. Personally using vs2k8 I've been happy with the default set. Perhaps if I were doing .NET where trying to create UI mattered it would be different.
