Hi all.

I've had VS 2008 for about six months, installed alongside VS 6 (well,
I only installed VB 6 and omitted the rest). I'm developing on Vista
and deploying to Vista and 7, but I only have one machine available
for development.

Now, I've just taken delivery of VS 2010 (June 2010 MSDN shipment) and
I'm not sure how to proceed.

I need VB6 because I haven't finished converting all the old projects
yet. If I install VS 2010, and all my VS 2008 projects convert OK, I
would then want to uninstall VS 2008.

I've seen a few problems mentioned uninstalling 2010 when it's been
installed alongside 2008 but I wonder whether to expect any problems
doing it the other way around?

A couple of large VS 2008 projects are live so I don't want to
uninstall 2008 until I'm sure that 2010 is working properly, and able
to convert the 2008 projects successfully.

Thanks for any guidance.

Gale.

For the benefit of anyone still reading this NG, I installed VS 2010,
converted all my VB 2008 projects without a hitch, then uninstalled VS
2008.

No problems anywhere at all.

Gale.
