You can't use VS2005 for commercial development, since the runtime is beta and not distributable. Q.E.D.

Also, even if they weren't, you would only be porting your code to the new compiler (each new C++ compiler breaks code that compiled in the previous). You wouldn't be actually releasing it. By the time the final release is out, you'd have ported most of it and then you could quickly do a full rebuild with the final compiler [just to be safe it's all ok] and release your product.

Hmm. OK, I'll grant that it's licensed.
Regardless, in my case, we do not develop or distribute using beta products as a matter of policy. We've gotten burned in the past (mainly by hardware vendors) where we've used beta products, and have then been forced to re-engineer something once the final version is released. This may mean we're a step behind the times, but it does reduce our risk.
Once Visual Studio 2005 is released, I wouldn't be surprised that we install it and start testing with it almost immediately.

We've not committed to it for development, but we're doing test builds with our codebase to catch any porting issues before they become an "issue"...
As we write extensibility products for VS we're also of course testing with VS2005 as a platform, using code written in VS2003.

If your software project is due out after the release, why not.. you get all the goodies now. Just depends on how much risk you are prepared to have...

But, what I was thinking of is if all are goodies or there are quite a lot of problems that may be solved after the final release of VS ...

After trying to use PWB (a verrrrry long time ago), I find it hard to believe anyone ever built anything with it. It was a monster PITA.

Can I use backcolor on datagrid when I MouseMove on it ?

Didn't you hear? VB6 will stop working at the end of the year; attempting to use it will cause your hard drive to melt into a large puddle.
Seriously though you might want to consult the proper forms.

It's still the best for MFC (that's what the poll is about). In VS.Net they really screwed up the resource editor and that feature is important for MFC development.

Yeah, that's my biggest gripe about Visual Studio 2003, still lets hope this has been addressed in next version.
