I need to determine which version of Visual Studio my code is being compiled
in.
I have some C++ functions that must be able to compile in both VS 6 and VS
..NET 2003. The code in the functions must be slightly different in the 2
versions of VS.
I would like to do something like:

#ifdef VS_NET_2003
do this
#elif VS_6
do that
#endif

Does VS come with some standard preprocessor defines that I can use?

TIA,
Kim Hellan

Try _MSC_VER (part of the Microsoft-specific predefined macros)

I think you want _MSC_VER
