I have just started looking at Microsoft development tools. I have started my evaluation with an Express edition of Visual Studio. I am also interested in looking at DevForce Express but I see from your fact sheet that Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Professional is a requirement. Can you tell me if this is a firm requirement or if it�s possible to install and use DevForce Express with Studio Express?

The fact sheet is not entirely correct.  You can also use the Standard or Team Edition of Visual Studio.  However, we cannot use Visual Studio Express because the Express version of Visual Studio does not support Add-Ins and Add-In support is required for our Object Mapper technology.
