    C++ Help for .NET programmer

    Hi,
    I develop in VB.NET.
    I have sample code supplied in C++ files.

    I need to rewrite this in VB.NET

    How can I open and run the C++ files, I have:
    Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition
    Visual Studio 2003 Enterprise Edition

    Do I need another development suite to edit the C++ files and run them,
    so I can step through the code?

    Many Thanks.

    If you have Visual /Studio/, then you already have Visual Basic, C#, C++
    and [many] other languages available to you.

    Your "sample code" should include a Solution file (.sln) or, for older
    C++ versions, a Project (.dsp) and/or Workspace (.dsw) file. Open these
    in 'Studio and see what it makes of them (take a backup first, though;
    'Studio likes to "upgrade" things in place and there's no "downgrade"
    option to change them back).

    HTH,

      Phil thanks for the help
      There is a dsp file. However I only have visual basic 6.0.. I don't
      have visual studio 6.0
      How do I open this, can I do it with Visual Studio 2005?
