    MessageBox.Show("\nEdition of the environment: " +   
                    processes.DTE.Edition, "Testing Processes DTE Property");  
}  

Shared Sub DTE(ByRef dte As EnvDTE.DTE)  
    Dim processes As EnvDTE.Processes = dte.Debugger.LocalProcesses  
    MessageBox.Show("Edition of the environment: " + _  
                    processes.DTE.Edition, "Processes Test - DTE Property")  
End Sub
