We purchased VS2003 Standard Edition a couple of months ago for an inherited
project and just realized that optimizations (eg inline functions) are not

converting old VC6 code to allow it to compile under ...

I am writing a small low level embedded USB application using C++/CLI
windows Forms.
I am sort of new to the C++/CLI and having trouble understanding what
happens in this very simple line of code:

We have a rather large application, perhaps a million lines of code doing
everything from database access to gui to painting items on the screen, all

I'm trying to add a version resource to an existing VC++ 6 program, but am
having trouble because the ResourceView Tab is not showing up.  I do get the
ClassView and FileView tabs.  Is there a way to force the ResourceView tab

I am trying to recompile application that has been developed in VC++
