Re: Visual Basic or Visual Studios?

Hi Sharron:
I have used Vb.net 2005 and 2008 Express and Visual Web Developer 2005 and 2008 
Express along with Sql Server Express with my Windoweyes Screen Reader. I will 
be installing the full blown Visual Studio Professional Edition soon. My choice 
and recommendation would be for you to run Vb.net 2008 Express and Sql Server 
2005 or Sql Server 2008 Express.
The key to using any Visual Studio product, including the Express modules, is 
to configure the IDE options correctly and get scripts to help make it more 
screen reader friendly.
It has a steep learning curve at first but is the best development environment 
once you know your way around the IDE.
Get help from list members on downloading and installing the free packages from 
Microsoft, the JAWS or Windoweyes script and configuring the IDE.
That will likely be the biggest headache since it is all new to you. If you 
need help I will be glad to help if I can.
One note: If you decide to run any VS (Visual Studio) product it is best if you 
have a high speed internet connection and not dial up because some of the 
downloads are pretty big.
