Hey, I know this document but it does not answer my questions. Prices are not most important here.

Yes: if you are upgrading from Visual C++ Standard then the choices are either Visual C++ Express Edition, which unlike the previous Standard SKU does include the optimizing compiler; or Visual C++ Standard, which includes not only the C++ compiler but also the C# and VB compilers.
If you are just doing simple C++ (or C) programming; you are not really doing a lot of data access nor using multiple languages then I would suggest the Express version.

Hi,
As stated in the document. VS2005 Standard Edition costs as much as $299 ($199) upgrade. In your inquiry on choosing between VC++ Express and the standard edition, I suggest purchasing the standard edition for the express editions has many limitations. Here is the list of differences.
