<%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXH"] %> may not be used for commercial software development work.

When it comes to low-cost XML tools, software developers should shop carefully: Smaller product companies offer tools with very limited, specialized functionality, and they just don't have <%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SS"]%>'s proven track-record when it comes to offering quality technical support, timely product updates, and soundly engineered features. <%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXH"] %> provides more features of higher quality at a lower cost, so naturally we think we're offering better value. Try it for free! Better yet, take the $<%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["PSSH"] %> plunge and buy <%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXH"] %> now.
There's been a lot of hype lately about so-called 'free' XML editors that offer XML features. But if you look behind the curtain, you'll find that these tools are largely unsupported and are rigged with time-bombs that often render the application unusable after short (sometimes as few as 24 hours!) trial periods. We think these 'free' software offerings are really just shameful marketing gimmicks in disguise, and are not even worth the time to install, let alone your serious consideration. We're especially pleased to offer <%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXH"] %> as a clear alternative to bait-and-switch software.
You got it! The <%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXE"] %>, <%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXP"] %>, and <%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXH"] %>.
The easiest way to check your edition of <%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SS"]%> is to click Help -> About <%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SS"]%> on the <%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SS"]%> menu. The product name appears right under the banner; the specific version and release you currently have installed appears in the 'Framework version' field. If the About <%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SS"]%> dialog box makes no reference to any editions, then you're using an older (Release 5.3 and earlier) version of <%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SS"]%>, which we have renamed <%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXP"] %>.
No. <%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXH"] %> has a completely separate installation directory and registry settings, and it will not interfere with an installation of <%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SSXP"] %> on the same computer.
