VS6 Enterprise equivalent in VS 2005

Question

Hi,

What is the equivalent version of VS6 Enterprise edition in VS2005 series. Also which platfrom SDK we require to use with VS 2005.

Answer 1

Visual Studio 2005 comes in several flavors:

• Visual Studio 2005 Product Line Overview
• Visual Studio 2005 Team System Editions Comparison

There is no direct equivalent of the Visual Studio 6.0 Enterprise Edition, instead when you are upgrading to Visual Studio 2005 I recommend you take a look at your exact needs and based on this decide for which version to go. If I had to give one edition that comes close enough to the Enterprise Edition I would say that it is propably the Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Developers.

Answer 2

You don't "require" any platform SDK to develop applications with Visual Studio.
