Visual Studio 2005 installation

I have a full version of Visual Basic 6 and upgrade versions of Visual Studio
2002, 2003, and 2005. What is the easiest way to do the install? I know in
the past, I have done Visual Basic 6, then the 2002 upgrade, then the 2003
upgrade, then the 2005 upgrade. Do I have to perform all of these steps ?

does the upgrade version of 2005 come with a product key?

You should be able to just install 2005 and enter the product key without
having to install the over versions.

Hello, I'm having some problems installing Visual Studio 2005. I'll briefly explain what's the history of the problem here. First I installed VS 2005 beta 2. I uninstalled it later via the Windows Uninstall Tool you can download. Then I installed Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition ENU. This was a trial version for 180 days.

I haven't seen anyone mention it here yet so I thought it would be worth noting that MS has apparently released VS 2005 Service Pack 1. It's available at: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=BB4A75AB-E2D4-4C96-B39D-37BAF6B5B1DC&displaylang=en A bit of a big download, but hopefully it will be worth it. --
