Maybe I'm wierd (lucky?)  but I've used every new release of VC since 1.1 and in all cases have found the new version
superior to the old.  IMO that's definitely the case with VC7 -vs- VC6sp5.  In my case, I'm writing new code with VC7,
so I couldn't care less if there are compatibility problems with VC6 code.  In general though, I'm 100% sure you're
right.
