MSDN SQL 2005 versions

I'm a MSDN subscriber and recently installed SQL 2005 developer edition and
noticed it installed a version of visual studio. I'd prefer to install VS
pro edition seperate from SQL 2005. Should I install SQL 2005 Standard
version instead of developer edition and then install Visual Studio Pro
edition?
I couldn't find in the SQL 2005 developer edition install options where to
choose not to install the visual studio version.If you do not want the VS part to be installed, during installation, you can
opt out of installing the Business Intelligence Development Studio. But, you
can install this becuase it gives you access to SSIS, SQLCLR, Analysis
Services projects. Once you install the VS 2005 version, you can use either
of them to do your work.

Actually, I do not believe the VS isntalled with SQL Server gives you
access to the SQLCLR projects - I'm not 100% though.

I am. You cannot open SQLCLR projects with BIDS.

guess SQLCLR is not allowed.

Yes, and vice versa. Both products share the VS shell and just install
different components.
