Which Microsoft products are written in .NET

[Guest]

I am working on a business proposal. And to show MS's committment to .NET, I
would like to list all the products that are written with .NET.

I have heard the Great Plains is being re-written using .NET. And I assume
Visual Studio is too.

I hope this is not a trade secret, but what other products are being
developed in .NET.

Thanks,

Bob

I did man, there are 18 million entries for '.NET Developed Software'!
Granted this is not all MS. I will try to narrow the search and I will look
for that other thread.

Thanks

Try around :

Unfortunately the thread was really long. I believe there was another list
with about 10 products (likely by an internal MS poster, If I remember he
mentionned one or two internal tools and posted a link to a blog about this
topic). Good luck.

Strange searching on Google with your exact question gives direct this.

Hence the sentence:

How about this -

Anything that Microsoft can write in .NET is being written in .NET. The two
main flagship prodcuts -

MS Office - has a serious 10 year long work investment into itself, and all
that code cannot be ported over into .NET in a matter of a few months, even
those are being backfitted with .NET using VSTO etc.

Windows - Longhorn - It's all about managed APIs.

Lets not forget Managed DirectX, Avalon, WinFx, oh the list is endless.
