Using team foundation server w/other versions of VS2005

[Mesan]

Does anyone know if it's possible to use team foundation server as a
SCM backend with non-team system editions of visual studio? For
example, we're planning on getting a copy of Visual Studio 2005 Tools
for Office and I'd really love to use team foundation server for source
control instead of sourcesafe. Is that a supported configuration?

AFAIK, no. Pro will link natively to SourceSafe, but not TFS. I could be
incorrect. If it does, you will need a CAL. You can use the admin tools for
check out and check in, but that is a bugger.

I got a response from Microsoft sales saying that a non-team edition
client can connect up to TFS for source control, in case anyone is
interested.
