Microsoft Visual Studio Express was created in 2005.
Visual Studio Express is a piece of software manufactured by Microsoft. It may be purchased from their online store featured on the Microsoft website.
Microsoft Visual Web Developer focuses on the tools required to develop Web applications and is fully incorporated into Microsoft Visual Studio itself. Microsoft Visual Web Developer Express edition is a separate product that makes use of the same integrated development environment as Microsoft Visual Studio itself, but has a more limited set of language features.
The latest version is Microsoft Visual Studio 2012(.NET 4.5)Although, this is still in beta testing.It is available for free from Microsoft.Update: Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 is no longer is beta. Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Express is available for free (www.microsoft.com/express).

Visual studio is a collection of different language compiler, whereas visual basic is just a single language. Visual studio express edition can be downloaded from www.microsoft.com/express A visual basic programmer uses visual studio to write and compile visual basic programs.
Microsoft Visual Studio has been written in Visual C++ and Visual C#
Both will be available on the computer (sadly.) As an example, people who do personal programming targetting the XNA framework (the Microsoft gaming package for the XBox 360) install the XNA Express package, which is built on top of Visual Studio C# Express. Those of us with the professional versions have to deal with having both on our machine, since it won't work with the Team Edition of Visual Studio that I have.
No. Visual C++ Express is free, but Visual Studio C++ must be bought. The Express edition is a subset of the Studio release.
Microsoft has Visual Studio 2005, 2008, and (in beta) 2010. There are also older versions. There is no Visual Studio 2007. (Are you talking about Office 2007?)
Yes, it can.
This program is located in the IDE directory of the Visual Studio directories and varies depending on the version of Visual Studio you have. One example is C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\vsta.exe
The Visual Studio Express editions are free versions of software that are released with the intent of teaching people that would like to learn to use Microsoft-based programming languages. Visual Basic is one of the core languages you can learn using the Express 2008 suite, along with C++, C#, Microsoft SQL Lite, and the Web Developer (ASP) versions. Downloading Visual Basic Express 2008 allows you to learn Visual Basic and compile programs for demonstration/testing purposes only. You must upgrade to Visual Studio 2008 to legally distribute programs you have created in Visual Basic Express 2008. The projects for both programs are compatible with each other, so you can upgrade at any time without losing your work.
