Can I install Visual studio 2010 and 2008 together?

I need both of them on one computer, first for educationa开发者_JAVA百科l purposes and second for work. Will there be compability problems?

---

Yes. I have both of them installed side by side without any issues

---

They should work together fine. Just be sure to install them in order from oldest to newest. See this MSDN article for details.

---

It should work fine, I have both installed on my current machine.

But just as an fyi, 2008 wasn't designed for Windows Vista/7, so it might throw up a warning or two when installing.

Aye, it's possible. They install to different directories, and operate on different files, so no problem should be caused by having them both installed. (I have Visual Basic 05 and 08 on the same machine)
