The Express Editions are for the .NET 2.0 framework.

I do not know on the compatibility issue. I haven't mixed the versions or attempted to open an 2001/2003 project in the 2005 system.

The Visual Basic Express Edition is the base edition of Visual Basic 2005 (aka VB 8.0). Applications created in Visual Studio .NET 2002 or 2003 are compatible with the Express Edition provided they don't rely on features that the Express Edition doesn't support, for example, connecting to a remote database.

Hope this helps,
