Visual Studio 7.0 and 7.1 on same machine

A

alistairc

I am C++ / MFC developer working in architectural non realtime and
realtime visualisation.

I work with Visual C++ 6.0 IDE for some of my apps and for others, eg
programs using AutoCAD 2004/5 ObjectArx in C++ - which requires Visual
C++ 7.0 (.Net 2002)- I have installed Visual C++ 7.0 (2002)on the same
machine (Windows XP)
which works fine.

I have been recently tasked to develop Multigen Paradigm (Vega Prime)
applications which require Visual C++ 7.1 (2003)

Is it possible / safe / practical to install Visual C++ 7.1 (.Net 2003)
in parallel with (ie on the same machine as) my existing Visual C++ 7.0
(2002) / Visual C++ 6.0 IDE's so I can develop in all 3 environments on
the same machine?

I have Visual Studio .NET 1.0 and 1.1 (2003) on the same machine with no
problem.

If you open a Visual Studio .NET 1.0 project in 1.1, it asks you if you want
to convert it. If you do so, you can no longer use it in 1.0 (I think).
