      Visual Studio 2005 supports VC++ 6.0 MFC. But once you convert to Visual studio 2005 version you cannot run it again VC++ 6.0. Visual Studion 2005 does not provide that backward compatibility. Karthik M

        ...that can be purchased from him/her. You can always find a copy of VC++ v6 from other resources.

        Opening a VC++ v6 project with VS 2005 will cause it to be converted. Is that what you meant?
