THANKS again for all your help! Donna

Donna,
You can always move up to the next level by paying the difference from you initial investment to the next level, in the same version.

I find that using the standard version works the same as stand alone,but find being able to take my native raw and tiff files (not just jpegs) into studio and work with them stand alone.
If I want to work with an image in PS, then I would use the plugin.

As William has stated, if you do not use raw or tiff files and only use jpegs, then the standard version is for you.
