The "express" just means you lose a few of the newer features in exchange for a free IDE. I don't know what features you'd miss, but I doubt it'd be anything critical. I don't know what you mean by VC6 text, unless you mean the syntax highlighting, in which case, I prefer the newer IDEs myself (and just about any IDE will have that). I've always used the VC IDE, so I don't know how Dev-C++ is.
