  Hi,

  Depends on what your needs are; have a look at these links for comparing them:

  Express versions
  http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2010-editions/product-comparison#expresscomparetable

  Full versions:
  http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products

  There is a nice thread here where they discuss about these versions here:
  http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/vssetup/thread/2263f2d9-ade3-4157-a024-957aa7397b0a

  Personally I haven't tried developing with Visual Studio Express for the addins but I would say, have a go and if you run into limitations post them here and maybe we can then find a solution.

  Good luck!

  Thanks for your answer. I'll hope I will get some spare time to start with and try it out and will post any limitations I run across If I come that far.

  All the best!
