Can I replace SQL Server Standard Edition with MSDE?

Hi,
We have a software that is developed by using MS SQL Server Standard
Edition. The vendor claims that the software cannot be used with MSDE.
The question is:
Are MSDE and SQL Server Standard Edition exactly the same from a software
point of view? Can I replace the standard edition with MSDE? Are there points
that should be considered in doing this replacement?
Thanks,
GG
I don't know the pure "from a software point of view", however, if the
software requires so many connections that exceeds MSDE can do, then you are
doomed. So it's not only the pure software.
