    If I convert an app from vc6.0(mfc) to vs2005, could it run under vista?

    What compiler you use to compile your app has nothing at all to do with whether it will run under Vista. It completely depends on how you wrote your app.

        Hmm.. programming isnt an easy ride.. Are you completely new to programming? Also, if you're targeting a specific language, maybe the VC++ or C# forums (for example) would be more useful... --PerspX

          Yes, but it would be a complete waste of my time.

          In your case, pay somebody else to do it.

                                  All depends on the nature of the application. The first thing to do is to get it running successfully in VC++ 2005 on Windows XP. Then you'll just have to try it on Vista and see what issues arise. The main potential hazard is security changes.
