I don't know about Vista 64, but I've got the Server 2003 SDK and the Server 2008 SDK both installed on my 32-bit XP box, and they live together quite happily. I also have VC6, VC7, VC8 and VC9, all running without interfering with each other as long as their environments are setup via their batch scripts, not in the system environment. (The only slight niggle I have is that the default vsvars32.bat with VC9 now looks in the registry for the latest Windows SDK installed. It ships with v6.0A, so it uses that initially, but when you install the Server 2008 SDK (which is v6.1) it starts using that instead. I tweaked VC9's batch script to always use the v6.0A that it came with, and I have a separate batch script for setting up the v6.1 environment when I want to use that.) _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
