C++ Help for .NET programmer

dermot

Hi,
I develop in VB.NET.
I have sample code supplied in C++ files.

I need to rewrite this in VB.NET

How can I open and run the C++ files, I have:
Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition
Visual Studio 2003 Enterprise Edition

Do I need another development suite to edit the C++ files and run them,
so I can step through the code?

Many Thanks.

That's brave of you ...

If you have Visual /Studio/, then you already have Visual Basic, C#, C++
and [many] other languages available to you.

Your "sample code" should include a Solution file (.sln) or, for older
C++ versions, a Project (.dsp) and/or Workspace (.dsw) file. Open these
in 'Studio and see what it makes of them (take a backup first, though;
'Studio likes to "upgrade" things in place and there's no "downgrade"
option to change them back).

HTH,

Phil thanks for the help
There is a dsp file. However I only have visual basic 6.0.. I don't
have visual studio 6.0
How do I open this, can I do it with Visual Studio 2005?
