VSS 6.0d & 2005 on one Workstation   
I have VS 2003 and have been using VSS 6.0d. On the same workstation, 
I've installed VS 2005. I'd like to install VSS 2005 for integrated use with 
VS 2005, but also keep VSS 6.0d for use with VS 2003. Can I do this? Are 
there any problems I can expect with this setup?

     I'm also considering having a separate VSS database for the VSS 2005. 
Is this the recommended route, or is it OK to have it access the same 
database that VSS 6.0d is accessing?

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mike,

No, you can't do this.
VSS integration in VS is not side-by-side. The last one installed wins (and 
the last one uninstalled breaks the other one).
So, if you install VSS2005, you'll end up using it in both VS2003 and 
VS2005. I'd recommend uninstalling VSS6 before doing this (no, you'll not 
going to lose registered databases).
It is ok to have VS2005 projects in the same database as VS2003. The 
database format hasn't changed between VSS6 and VSS2005.

Re: VSS 6.0d & 2005 on one Workstation   
I am not sure. But the readme say this is not possible. It say this is not 
necessary (side-by-side) as Vss2005 is backward compatible.
I installed Vss2005 and it woks fine with both Vs2003 and Vs2005.

Re: VSS 6.0d & 2005 on one Workstation   
Thanks, Alin.

    I occasionally have to maintain legacy VB6 code as well and have VB6 
installed with VSS integration. Would VSS 2005 work with this as well?

Hi Mike,

Microsoft has tested VSS2005 only with VS2003 and VS2005, but there are 
reports from users that use VSS2005 with VB6/VC6 without problems.
For VB6, you may need to modify vbaddin.ini or run ssint.exe from VSS6 as 
described in this forum post:
