Visual Studio 6 and .NET 2.0

Hello, a lab that I help manage just got Visual Studio 6 for its
computer science class. We're having problems even getting simple
projects to compile on the computers in VS 6. We think one problem
might be that we're running .NET 2.0 framework on the same computers
for some applicaitons we're testing. Has anyone heard of compatibility
issues with .NET 2.0 Framework and older version of VS? I know that 2.0
works side-by-side of 1.1 and 1.0, but does it go further back to the
non .NET days?

When you reinstall Visual Studio 6, make sure that after the uninstall, you
delete the folder \Microsoft\Visu al Studio, so that the reinstall is
"fresh." After the reinstall, apply SP5.

Without "hands-on" I have to guess that the compiler itself has been
corrupted. I haven't seen a similar problem, so this is just a guess.

Hey Dick, I'm going to try all of that this weekend and post results.
Hopefully it just needs SP5

I am currently taking a college course in Visual Basic.Net and I am a beginner. I bought Visual Studio.Net 2003 to do my homework at home.

So, what is the relationship between Visual Studio and Visual Web Developer. I find a lot of documentation on MSDN that presents Visual Web Developer as it's own stand-alone product (which I'd expect of the Express editions), but apparently there are NON Express versions of Visual Web Developer. Is Visual Web Developer only built-in to Visual Studio 2008 Professional? I see "Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008" listed as an installed...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
