Measurement Studio 2015 with MS Visual Studio Express 2013

[Bertrand_ENAC]

Hi,

I'm a long time CVI user and I wanted to try Visual Studio and Measurement studio.

I installed Visual Studio Express 2013 and Measurement Studio 2015.

I have a full academic licence for NI software.

After starting VS2013 the Measurement Studio additions do not show up.

After reading the Installation requirements a saw:

1/ That VS 2013 expres desktop is in the list of supported versions

2/ Microsoft Visual Studio Express Editions do not support Measurement Studio Visual Studio-integrated tools. 

These 2 statements look contradtictory so my question is:

Is it possible to use Measurement Studio 2015 with VS 2013 Express and if yes how?

Thanks

Hi Bertand,

Yes VS Express 2013 is in the list of supported versions(for Mesurment Studio 2015) but with some restrictions, more details here to explain why :http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/3EA27E75A342A9EF8625723B007343ED?OpenDocument

If you want a full version, you should do not use the express version, only Visual Studio 2013, like this compatible versions tab shows :
