Help with VC++ 4.0 project

[rbeaureg]

I have some code from an old C++ 4.0 project that I am trying to update to update for a user. I know very little about C++. I have some C experience and some C# experience.

Does anybody have some answers to these questions.

Would I need the old Visual C++ 4.0 to view and compile the code?

Could I use a newer version like 5.0 or 6.0 to view and compile the code?

Would I have to change the code to use in a newer version?

Is there any way I could make it work in Visual Studio 2005?

If there is anyone that could give me some direction, I would appreciate it.

Answer to all these.

The code can be viewed in notepad, or any other IDE you choose. The VC++ workspace from version 4 should be viewable in Visual Studio 2005 (it might ask you if you awant to update to a 2005 workspace) depending on MS backwards compatabilities. And all code should compile in a newer version without modifications (unless its MS specific and they havent kept backwards compatability)
