I read somewhere that there's a difference in the obligation to pray the Divine Office between solemn vows and simple vows. Is this right?

I have heard this also-that in solemn vows, religious' job is praying the full Office, while those in simple vows (the more active religious) still have to pray a certain amount of the Office. The way this was told to me was very informal, so I am not sure if it is Canon Law or just the expected norm. Sister Mary Catharine?!
