Hi all.
I already installed Web Express, and want install Visual C# Express side by side with Web Express on the same computer. But MS instruction manual says I need remove all "previous versions" , including "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition" and other componets that I've installed.
MS did not define what "previous versions" are, and when I run autouninstall, it wants me to remove Web Express componets.
Seems like that each language tool in Visual Studio Express 2005 are mutually exclusive Are they not Any suggestions for me to install both without much hassle
Thanks.
Can I install Web Developer Express along with Visaul C# Express?

Yep, you can install all of them side by side. The "previous versions" that are mentioned in the read me are beta versions. So if you've already installed C# Express, you can install VWD side by side.
If you run into ASP.NET questions, please post in the ASP.NET forums at http://www.asp.net/forums

I had the same question.
So I just down loaded VB, C#, and Web Developer (all Express versions) one after another. They all seem to be running fine side-by-side on my computer. The first download also included SQL Server Express. You also want to register each one (in each development environment select Help and 'Register Product') so you can get access to the Benefits Portal which has a lot of good free stuff.

Thanks, cliffie and Petel. I appreciate your time.
I just hope MS staff would make their writings more concise and clear! No doubt that MS webset contains a bundle of info. But waste us too much time to search/read out what we want.

I expect a lot of developers will want to install all of the products in the Express series.
My order of installation:
Visual Basic plus MSDN, do not install SQL Express
Visual C++
Visual C#
Visual Web Dev
Visual J#
SQL Express
