Err... I thougth VS.NET didn't work *at all* under Win98? At least that's what I recently read. And it's also the main reason for me not to upgrade (till I get a new comp), besides that it is way too expensive...

Well, essentially, it doesn't seem to work at all under 98.
You can run VC++ programs under 98. And in theory, you can install debugging symbols on 98 to allow a remote connection from an XP machine with the whole VS.NET installed to a 98 test machine with only the debugging symbols installed.
But I can't get it to work. And apparently, I am not alone, as a search of newsgroups discovers other people with these problems, and no sure-fire resolution... and my own question on CP is yet to be answered. So I suppose it's back to cave-man debugging... log statements and message boxes.

Vs.Net is not officially supported on 98 at all. thats why a lot of vb 'homebrew' programmers are crying over their keyboards!

I suppose that's one benefit on VS.net, keep the homebrew VB programmers off the scene

Isn't the release date 2003-04-23? ASAP after that date would be optimal for me.

The installation went well.
I got some INTERNAL COMPILER ERRORs though when compiling, but after some fixing they went away.
I got some erronious warning details, often for unused params saying something in the lines of:
see std::basic_string<_Ty, allocator<blabla>, blablabla>
with:
[
_Ty = sometype
]
But the details were totally wrong, the unused param could be an int but it would complain on std::basic_string anyway.

I assume we are talking about upgrading for production use. Upgrading existing code bases and the like.
I'll be using VC2003 for any new projects when my MSDN subscription disks arrive. However all my current codebase will remain on VC6, just as it did when VC2002 came out.
I have only migrated one application from VC6 to VS2002, and that was an app that I last worked on in 2000. The only reason I upgraded it was because it was so old, I knew it would be getting a full system test before being shipped.

What reasonable other cases are there?
Turbo Pascal to VS.NET 2003 by 3042?

There is one :-
I am using VS.NET 2003 Final Beta now and will move to the Release version as soon as MS ships the CDs to me (prolly in 3-4 weeks time). I didnt know whether to select the "I already use it" option or the "I'll move from VS.NET 2002 to VS.NET 2003 by June" option. Finally I took the latter but am still unsatisfied with my vote. Because I am not using VS.NET 2002 now

How about, I don't know? I picked no current plans, since that was the closest. I guess the "No current plans" should be broken down into "Possibly, but I don't know when", and "No way I'll ever upgrade".
