Question on WPF and other layers

I was searching code project for Vista samples and found a few. One article I found said in order to run you need to install the WinFX Development tools from Microsoft. Is WinFX not built into this version of Vista? I havent kept up on the news, I knew they were talking about keeping it out but wasnt sure now. Does anyone know what other installs need to be done in order to code programs that allow you to program using aero and such? Thanks.

In order to develop Vista applications on an XP machine, you have to install the Windows SDK. The process for installing this has changed a lot over time. Last I installed it, you had to remove visual studio 2005 first, then install the SDK, and then put visual studio back on. A little annoying. But I think they've since drastically improved this. Take a look here[^].

Thanks for the reply. I was actually thinking of installing VS 2005 on Vista tonight and see what I can program using Vista features. That link seemed to answer my questions on extra installs I need. Thanks again for the time on this. Enjoy your day.
