Can VS 2005 and 2008 coexist on the same computer, with some projects continuing to be worked on in each? Michael > Can VS 2005 and 2008 coexist on the same computer, with some projects > continuing to be worked on in each? Yes. I am currently doing this on my development machine.

Memorized one of your books and had some great results. It's still in my astro library. I hope to get another observatory set up one day when time permits such dalliances again :-) Great work and good to see you around! >>> Michael - Are you the astrophotography Michael A Covington? >> [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Great work and good to see you around! Thanks for your support! You should memorize the 1999 edition -- it's much better than the 1985 or 1990 editions :) > Can VS 2005 and 2008 coexist on the same computer, with some projects > continuing to be worked on in each? Yes. But since 2008 can target .NET 2.0, then you will only need it if you need to work with other team members using 2005.

So you can't just go back and forth between the versions of Visual Studio. Just FYI.

If I recall correctly, Jon or Marc posted a hack that involved hand-editing the solution file in a way that allows VS2005 to open VS2008 files. If it's important to someone, they could Google back a few months to when 2008 came out and look for that message.

It's not definitive, but it may be helpful. According to Marc, it's slightly more complicated for web projects.

But since 2008 can target 2.0 it is only an issue if there are other team members with only 2005. As I wrote. Arne Yes. You can install it in your computer. Even you are going to create a program and build a setup. But I think when it comes to web application it is slightly more complicated.
