so the 5558 xdk doesn't work with visual c++ 6 ?
so either get an older xdk or get visual studio .net 2002 (since 2003 doesn't work either).
whats the difference between enterprise edition and the other one mentioned above ?

Correct...

VS.NET 2003 will work with 5558, but 5344 only supports VS.NET "2002"...

The older versions of the XDK will work with VC++ 6...

There are 4 versions of each product...

-Introductory Edition
-Standard Edition
-Professional Edition
-Enterprise Edition

That list basically goes (from top to bottom) worst to best, and cheapest to most expensive...

I can't speak for any newers XDKs... But 4627 requires you to have Visual Studio 6 Professional or Enterprise Edition...

thanks for explaining.

geez I'm really too stupid to find out which version I got. It's the MSDN Version of Visual C++ 6 not the complete Visual Studio.

Anyway, I can try to get a hold on the Visual Studio .net since I can use it to either programm in C# or C++ right ?

Thanks so much for this help.

Well, you sort of need the fundamewntals of C to use C++. But in the long run you want C++ because of classes.

Classes? Noooooooooo, i am teaching myself using books and the web, no classes for me hav'nt got the time

Lol...  

He means Classes as in the C++ "Objects"... (Not actual "classes", like with teachers)...

I've just always thought of C++ as more of an addition to C, rather than a totally new style...

Most of the same ideas are present in both, C++ is just more Object-Oriented than C (like with Classes and such)...

Opps...silly me!!
Would it be better for me to learn c++, has it superseded c?
