    If i install Visual Studio .NET beta 2 what will happen to
    Visual C++ 6.0 already installed


    Also can i compile apps using Visual Studio .NET beta 2

    Visual C++ 6.0 will remain intact, but you may get the file associations mixed up between the two.

    You can compile apps. I don't know about reduced functionality because the full version hasn't been released but it seems to have all the features you might expect and doesn't appear to have anything disabled. It is only a beta, though.

    What advantages will i get using the new developer studio
    If you only currently have Visual C++ then you'll be able to use Visual C++.net, Visual Basic.net and Visual C#.net. Specific Visual C++ enhancements include greater ANSI compilancy, more wizards, and a new interface and probably quite a bit more but I still use Visual C++ 6.0 for all C++ stuff as I find the Visual C++.net beta IDE slow.
