..Net 3.0 = .Net2.0 + WPF + WCF + a few others
And does program made with vb2005 .net 2 works on windows vista
Yes

And can i make compatibility of vb2005 with the .net 3

Sorry I'm not sure I understand this one.

Possibly you mean "Can I code against .Net 3.0 with VS2005?"

If so then the answer is yes although you will likely need the November CTP
of the VS2005 Extentionsfor some bits.

I don't have a lot of knowledge in this area, perhaps someone else can fill
in the blanks.

VB2005 /SP1/, yes.

Just add references to the "new" bits you want to use.

HTH,

Yes and no. The programming languages and libraries which are part of .NET
2.0 have not changed with .NET 3.0. .NET 3.0 simply adds some additional
class libraries, which you can reference from within your projects.

I don't understand why part of your answer is No. The simple fact is that
if .net 3.0 SDK is installed then he can reference the libraries it contains
from VS2005 (albeit with SP1 installed as Phil pointed out)
 
what r those tools ??

Windows Communications Framework (Remoting Replacement)
Windows Presentation Foundation (New GUI framework)
Windows WorkFlow Foundation (Workflow engine)
Windows CardSpaces (Security Framework)

I suppose that the "no" part is that you can't use VB.NET 3.0 instead of
VB.NET 2.0 in .NET framework 3.0, because .NET framework 3.0 still uses
VB.NET 2.0.

but you suppose !! I want to know if Microsoft has sure things about
that

I suppose that's what Herfried ment when writing "Yes and no".

That fact that .NET framework 3.0 uses VB.NET 2.0 is certainly a fact.
 
I agree with Göran entirely.

Fact 1: 3.0 contains and extends 2.0 whilst still running on the same CLR

My only question was regarding how the answer to the OP's question could
be even slightly No.

I believe Göran's supposition was regarding what Herfied meant by 'No'.

He was not supposing about Fact 1 (above).

Ok, the best solution is to install .net 3 and try it my self

If you use any of the libraries that was added in .NET 3, your program
will need .NET 3 to run.
