.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / General / March 2007Vista / VS 2003 compatibility?
I've heard that VS 2003 won't run on Vista... is that true? If so, is there a timeline for correcting this? -mdb > I've heard that VS 2003 won't run on Vista... is that true? If so, > is there a timeline for correcting this? > > -mdb I can't remember where I heard this so you could treat it with due skeptisism but I heard that 2003 is not going to be supported in Vista. However .Net 1.1 and (1.0 for that matter) applications should run fine (assuming that you take into account the more stringent security issuesthat come with vista) Ror > > I've heard that VS 2003 won't run on Vista... is that true?

However it appears to run (not sure how well) as they have a known issues list for it. Basically they don't support anything officially before VS 2005. Cheers, Gordy, Since Framework 1.x is not supported under Vista, it would make sense that VS2003 would also be unsupported. You can force Framework 1.1 to install with the ypical Vista warnings. > I've heard that VS 2003 won't run on Vista... is that true?

You don't need to put 1.0 or 1.1 on vista as compiled code written for these frameworks should run under 2.0 or 3.0(which as mentioned is still 2.0 + extras) and hence run on vista fine. -- Rory Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
