Importing VC++ 6 Project

I have an AppWizard generated project that was built in Visual C++ 6.0. I recently installed Visual C++ 2005 Express, and have not been able to compile it. It can't find any of the afx*.h files.

I noticed that someone posted that MFC is not supported on VC++ 2005 Express. Is this true If so, is that only for the Express edition or is MFC support being dropped entirely

If it is true that MFC is not supported, can VC++ 6 and VC++ 2005 co-exist on the same computer I'd like to use 2005 for any new projects but I still need to support the old ones.

The differences between the various versions of Visual C++ 2005 are explained here.

Many thanks.

The Standard version contains ATL + MFC. All VC versions except the Express version contain MFC+ATL!

No MFC!!! This crippling a real big deal for anyone who has written code with earlier VC++ products.

You should strongly suggest to your 'superiors' that they make this announcement at an earlier stage, like at least in your more obvious product comparison sheet:

I just spent 2 hours and numerous phone transfers with your sales team to find out what might be missing from this 'free' product -- but none told me of this major issue.

MFC is not part of Visual C++ Express! You need at leastthe standard version.
