Hello all, a quick question regarding installation: after installation, I've only got the VA X menu in VS 2003; how can I also install VA X in VS 2005? Apologies if I've missed a similar topic in the forums -- no luck finding anything relevent.

I did try running VS 8's
devenv.exe /setup

though this didn't seem to help.
thanks for your help,
bcreane

Which version of VA have you installed? The earlier versions of VA did not support VA2005, but you would have to be using something like 1301 for this to be a problem.

Certainly the current release (1535) and beta versions (1539) both support VS2005.

VS2005 Express is not supported, this is a design decision by Microsoft, no complex addin's are supported in the express versions of the IDE.

We're using version 1246, so I guess this is indeed a problem. Anecdotally other engineers are using this old version with VS 2005 -- they just haven't installed 2003 at the same time. We'll see if we can update our site license ... its a great product and well worth supporting.

thanks, brendan

It is very unlikely 1246 can be made to work with VS2005.

If you have not installed a more recent version on a trial licence on your current machine check out 1539 as a 30 day trial, it includes C++ refactoring If you have previously tried a newer version be aware you will only get a 3 day trial before having to roll back to your current version.
