3.0 is 2.0 unchanged + new features so if you don't explicitely use those
new features, it won't change anything.
Just reference those assemblies.
You may want to install updated designers depending on what you are doing.
Not sure if the doc is updated (don't remember as I tend to use the online
doc).

IMO the first step would be first to make sure you actually need something
from 3.0. If not you can easily wait for Orcas to be out...

Try :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
and the "Related Resources" section. You'll find there designers to add to
your VS 2005 installation so that you can more easily create
WPF/WCF/Workflow application from VS 2005 :

I looked but I'm still a little confused.
I assume VS2005 already has designers (for the Designer?)
Can you tell me about one of them to get me oriented as to what they are?
Thanks a lot

Yes it already have designers such as the winforms designer is what you are
using to create a form in "design mode" but putting controls in place
directly. But as 3.0 adds NEW things, there are new designers for 3.0 as
well.

IMO the very first step is first to look what is in 3.0. I'm not sure you
really need something from this. See :
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms687307.aspx
to see what is in 3.0....

Thanks for your concern.

I tried to see what was new in menus and was taken to a page to down load an
..xps file which I did.

Then I couldn't open it for lack of an app that new how.

Checking the internet I found that IE6 should know how so I tried it and was
told I needed 3.0 to read it.

I made have made a mistake some place but this is how I remember what
happened.

So I downloaded 3.0 and was able to read the file and found out (as you been
suggesting) that the changes are for apps that run under Vista which I don't
have.

Anyway, I now have 3.0 installed. Is there a down side?

Can I get rid of the older versions?

Thanks for all the help

I have vs2005 installed on the System disk and vs2008 installed on a different disk. I want to remove VS2005. I read one time about some problem with uninstalling vs2005 after vs2008 is installed but can't find the site now. Is there a problem? Would reinstalling vs2008 fix any problem that may occur because of uninstalling vs2005.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
