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.
