	Frank - I went through this process mid year. MSDN Academic license is the way to go.It is a low cost option and good value. It also allows you to provide the software for students to use at home.

	Regarding stability - I had all those hassles as well. It is a combination of getting the config right and a bit of experience.

	We had to make the following changes to individual PC's for file i/o and even some keyboard i/o (eg Inputbox) to work. This can be incorporated into the standard PC setup.

	Control Panel/Administrative Tools/MS NET Framework 2.0 Config/Configure Code Access Security Policy/Adjust Zone Security/Make Changes to this computer/... then change All Zones to Full Trust

	You can probably just apply this to a couple of the zones, but I had to solve it quickly and did not test the minimum requirment.

	Frank

	Hello Colleagues,
	We are in the budgeting phase for 2007. I am currently using vb.net express. I am wondering if anyone knows anything about pricing for priviate schools for vb.net whe I presume the express version is no longer free.
	 
	Currently, for our school to get vb.net we would have to purchase the full visual studio suite at just over $100 per license. has anyone delved into the MSDN Academic Alliance? 
	 
	On another topic, how stable have people using vb,.net express found it on their student systems? In my class of 26 years 9/10 students, we find the product reasonably stable but some students get some strange system errors occasionally (strange I suppoose because of the cryptic way the application reports errors)...of course our system protection mechanisms would not have anything to do with that....would they...??
