title: Questions about Visual Studio Express and Professional
body: <p>If I have a project that I created in Visual Studio Professional (say, 2013) that uses the database functionality, would I still be able to open the project and make edits to the code using Express? Why I ask this is because we are a small software development firm. The budget limit we have means we'd like to keep purchases to the minimum. The main features we need for Visual Studio Professional is mainly creating the executable (.msi or .exe) and the database features.</p>
  
  <p>If we simply buy one copy of VS Professional, could other developers work with the Express edition for development, and only use the Professional edition when we need to work on functionality that is outside of Express' features such as database and creating executables?</p>
  
  <p>My last question is - based on Visual Studio Professional's licensing scheme, only one person logged in at a time can use it, is that correct?</p>
  
  <p>I apologize if this is the incorrect place to ask this. Let me know and I will delete it.</p>
