As the text you've quoted says - Visual C++ 7 aka Visual C++ .NET is a part
of Visual Studio .NET.

Note that the current version is Visual Studio .NET 2003, which includes
VC++ 7.1.

VC++ 7.0 is part of the Visual Studio .NET (also called VC++ 2002)
VC# is also part of this Visual Studio .NET.

You could regard Visual Studio .NET as the editor where the VC++ and C# are
plug-ins.

Now the confusing part is this:
VC# creates only pure .NET apprlications that needs the .NET framework
installed

VC++ Can create pure old-style exe files like you would do with VC++ 6.0 and
then you don't need this .NET framework installed.

But C++ can also create *pure* .NET programs (called managed code) or
*mixed* .NET and old style code (managed/unmanaged code).
In both cases you do need the .NET framework installed. (If your application
complaints about a mscooree.dll, then you have compiled as managed (or
mixed) code and the .NET framework is not installed yet on that machine.
