Another digression.

VS2002 had a single SP1 issued in 2005, long after most people switched 
to the essentially free ( shipping cost from MS of DVDs ) VS2003 
upgrade. VS2003 has never had an SP issued. VC 8.0 is in VS2005 and, at 
the rate which MS has released SPs for the previous releases... <g>. MS 
did issue workarounds for problems in VS200(2,3) if one reported bugs to 
them verbally. Whether they still do I do not know. They have an online 
bug reporting system at 
http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/productfeedback/default.aspx. So far they 
appear to be very responsive to any bugs reported.
