Using VS 2005 Express Edition side by side with VS 2002

Hi everybody,

Can VS 2005 Express Edition run side-by-side without affecting each
others projects and applications, new and existing ones? Can you provide info
link where it is stated? Can I install any or all express edition without an
affect on existing applications and new application created using VS 2002.
Thanks.

You can use it side-by-side on different projects... but not the same
projects since the project files are not compatible.

Hi Rick,
What do you mean? When I create a project in VS 2002, I cannot open it in
VS 2005?

You can open it but it will insist on converting it to 2005 format. Once
converted, you cannot then open it again in 2002/2003.
