Can Visual Studio 2005 Beta-2 coexist with Visual Studio  2003 on the same machine?
Will the different executable versions in the PATH interfere with each other?
What about the different Framework version?

If it is possible, how do I make VS2003 the "default" one?

Thank you,
Alex.

Alex,

They are designed to co-exist.  I currently have them both installed on my
machine, and haven't seen any issues as of yet.

Excellent!

Now, the other question - if I install them both, how do I make 2003 the default one?
I want it to open .sln files that I double-click on.

Surf to a .sln file and right click. Choose to associate with 2003 and you
will default to it.

Yes, it should work.

Alex, do you have any more questions on it? Thanks.
