VB Standard vs. VS Professional

[BostjanK]

Hi!

Can anybody tell me what are the main differences between Visual Basic .NET Standard and VB that is included in Visual Basic .NET Professional.

Ive seen the differences on Microsofts page, but Id like to know more:
- what controls are available in VB Pro thatare not included in VB Standard
- Is Crystal Reports included with STandard edition
- How about data access - is ADO and/or ADO.NET available in Standard edition.

In Visual Studio 6 there are huge differences between Standard and Pro edition. Because Im only using VB buying whole Visual Studio .NET Professional isnt rational decision for me (im not professional programmer).


Thanks for your answers,
Bostjan
