Hi Olu

Thank you for your question.

Visually you will notice that the Project Information dialogue box is larger in Project Professional (which can connect to Project Server) than in Project Standard.

In practice the difference is that Project Professional can connect to the server (by using the Collaborate toolbar found in View > Toolbars) whereas Project Standard has no ability to connect to a server at all.

Both schedule in the same way and can open each other's files without any problem.

I hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew
