    Does Visual Web Developer Express have tools or features that make building ASP.net projects better that VS2008 Professional?

     

    I have VS2008 Professional and it has ASP.Net web templates on it, but am I missing out on something by not using Visual Web Developer Express?

     

    What about using the new Dynamic Data stuff? Does that work on top of Visual Web Developer Expree, or is it only for VS?

    No.  VWD is a cut-down version fo VS.  VS has all the feeatures of VWD and lots more. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/products/cc149003.aspx

    Have a look here http://blogs.msdn.com/mikhailarkhipov/archive/2006/06/26/647516.aspx

    New things like Dynamic Data are typically testted with Visual Studio first. They may or may not work in VWD Express.

    Thanks
