Hello,

I'm currently using VS2003 with MSSQL 2000 and consider moving to
VS2005. Although I understand both version of .NET framework with work
side-by-side, to avoid possible version conflicts I decide to do a fresh
install.

From some of the previous articles it seems there is "recommanded
installation order" - i.e. install VS2005 first, than SQL2005. While in
VS2003, SQL2000 is recommanded to be installed first.

So what is the recommanded installation order for VS2005 and SQL2000 to
work together? (We're not planning to upgrade most of our SQL servers to
SQL2005 in near future as most of our applications are still using SQL2000,
and most of our clients have no plan to upgrade yet.)

Regards,
Lau Lei Cheong
 
Hello,

I'd install SQL 2000 then VS 2003 then VS 2005. As a general rule, install
software in the order it was released.
