Hi all,
Sorry to ask this question in this area, but can i develop MFC on these versions of vs2008, and what does it mean by no operation system? Should I buy example 1, or example 2?
Look forward to your advice.
Cheers

Example 1
--------------
Visual Studio Pro 2008, Academic Edition, (PC): Amazon.co.uk: Software
Example 2
--------------
Visual Studio Standard 2008 Win32 DVD: Amazon.co.uk: Software
Are you at University? If so, check if your Uni is member of Microsoft academic alliance....aka MSDN academic alliance. If so, you can grab the pro version for free.
My Uni is a member and I can get a whole host of Microsoft products for nothing via download.
Hi Darren78,
No im not at uni, im just trying to fine a cheap version of vs2008. I have been looking on ebay but nothing has come up, some im looking to buy new now.
As i understand some versions of vs2008 dont allow mfc, so just double confirming with you guys.
Cheers

I'm new to programming so don't know what MFC is, but have you tried the free version of VS2008 from the MS site? http://www.microsoft.com/express/product/
Sorry if it doesnt help.
Pro and standard both include MFC. only express does not.
Actually, you can get the Team Edition from MSDNAA. It beats the Pro edition by far, so that is what I would recommend to you MSDNAA-ers.
Thanks, will d/l that later. Looking at the MS site, to buy the Visual Studii Team System 2008 Team Suite would cost £10100??? As far as I can tell thats the one they are giving away free on MSDNAA. I'd be a fool not to grab that whilst I can!!Quote:
