What software you need
To develop C# applications, you can use any of the
full editions of Visual Studio 2005. All of them include
the Visual Studio IDE, version 2.0 of the Microsoft
.NET Framework, C# 2005 (and Visual Basic 2005), and
a scaled-back version of SQL Server.
At one time, Microsoft also offered free Express Editions
of these components. But those editions are no longer
available. So unless you have access to them through
a school or training environment, you'll have to buy
a full edition of Visual Studio 2005...which is increasingly
hard to find as well.
