No.

MSDE is "SQL Server 2000" with some limitations like restriction to 2 GB
database-file.

> What are the best tools to use it?

ado.

MSDE is a database.
ODBC is a programming interface.

What is "msde2000 knowlage base" !?
There is only the MS knowledgebase.
The easiest way to search is www.google.com

For the latest KB articles you can use http://www.kbfeed.net/

VS.NET is a programming environment! It is not designed to manage
databases.
To administrat MSDE (or SQL-Server) should install the Enterprise-Manager
(which is available with a Client ACL of SQL-Server).

You can write unmanaged apps in both ides. I would recommend VC2003 (if you
do not have VC6).
