    Hi guys i'm not sure if this is surpose to be the subject title. I'm sorry as this is not a programming question. But i have to ask. Do i have to pay MICROSOFT for software developed using visual studio 2008 ,and how do i sell them to end users(inspired by flash & 3d studio Max). How and why should I license the software developed in visual studio is there anything else i have to do besides licensing. I searched for these answers through the web till i got an unbearable headache(it hurts).

      Nope, there is no royalty system in place at all to do this. There are some licensing restrictions I believe if you are using the Express or Academic versions if I remember correctly with regards to producing commercial software using those products.

        If you develop code in VS2008 and use no external components, then there should be on additional licensing required. If you use external components, the licensing required will be determined by that component's vendors. How you choose to license the application is up to you. Tim

            it sounds like you have very little programming experience judging by the questions you are asking. why not buy a programming book or get one from you library and have a read. or try wikipedia. i'd recommend learning java if youre wanting something that will run on a variety of operating systems. or if youre just wanting to write programs that run on microsoft windows why not download some of the visual studio express editions and learn from there.
