VBASIC, and all that?

According to

http://msdn.microsoft.com/howtobuy/vstudio/

there is, for VS.NET, "Academic", "Professional", "Enterprise
Developer", and "Enterprise Architect". For Python extensions, all
these releases will work; see

http://msdn.microsoft.com/howtobuy/vstudio/features/

for a checkmark list. For VC++ .NET 2003 Standard, it appears that
you get just the C++ compiler, and the IDE, see

OH NO!  I've gone seriously off-topic.  Please don't call the Spanish
Inquisiton.  Allow me to re-phrase the question:  What do I need to build
(on-topic) Python extensions?

Either VS.NET 2003 or VC++ .NET 2003 should do (although I don't know anybody who owns the latter to be sure). The core issue is that it needs a "native" C++ compiler (ie. not just managed C++), and that it needs mscvcr71.dll.

Martin
