Ok thanks. Thats the way it was for 2003..

I have VS2005 now (purchased standard edition) and on the ms website for VSTO they have a download link.. but that ends up going to the product download for VS itself.

How much did that cost and where did you get it?

I was trying to find a good UK store to buy it the other day.

Schools students arent meant to be able to get the academic license but amazon didn't care when I ordered Visual Studio. I would have ordered MSDN from them but the academic license was and still is out of stock :(

Also it is good to see you active on Web Wiz Guide again!

Huw .. Thanks mate.. Its good to be back.!!!

The company I am using to purchase it from is the Visual Basic Users Group. If you go to their form and send them an email they will get back to you with pricing.  It works out nice and cheap.. You can buy from them even if you are not a member

Yeah, you need an SU card to get a lot of stuff. I love my SU card, money off clothes, books, food, cinema, drinks, software... what more could you ask for?

It will come in time, you need to be a student first (As in non-compulsary education full time). Stands for Students Union...

Another good way to get a good price is to check out the Microsoft micro-ISV offer where you can get VS & Windows 2003 for like $400 or so. It's good for 2 years. I forget the link and can't find it at the moment though. Maybe someone else has it...
