visual studio .net professional

[T.K Kullervo]

Is it possible to build add-inns for Excel from VS .NET professional. I have
used VB.NET standard and I couldnt build them from there. The other projects
folder only includes database projects. Now im wondering if I need to buy
the enterprise version or is the professional edition sufficient

maybe you want Visual Studio Tools for Office ?

But I am not sure if VB.NET standard includes the Templates for Office
Add-ins.
