Is VB 2005 Express IDE Full Of Bugs?

[Dachshund Digital]

I don't know if anyone else is have issues with VB 2005 Express, but we
are, on multiple machines, it crashes during compiles, we have to do
'clean solution' almost very other time we compile.

The IDE hangs all the time. This happens on clean builds of XP SP2,
existing XP workstations, and even our Test 2003 Server.

Is anyone else having these issues? At this point, I have recommended
to management we return to VS IDE 2003, at least with it, we know what
the quirks are.

Well, there are doubts about if VS 2005 was released before being ready or
if the development process was so open to developers that we know a lot of
its problems. Anyway, go to the MSDN Product Feedback Center and check if
your issues/bugs are reported:
