    VS.Net 2002 Upgrade

    I am a student of VB.Net and own a
    copy of Visual Studio.Net Professional 2002. I missed MS's
    $29 upgrade offer. How can I upgrade now to VS.Net2003 at a reasonable price?

    Are you actually after the IDE or the compiler or both?

    If you're a studnet in a college or school - ask the establishment to purchase it for you under Academic pricing.

    Upgrade update

    Since I spent the money for VS.Net Professional I can use to make money, I don't want to go back to an Academic version.

    A number of programming examples I have downloaded
    written in 2003, will not open in 2002. So there is a significant
    difference.

    I said "Academic pricing" - I didn't say an Adacemid version.
    Its the same software, just cheaper for schools, colleges & charities.

    academic price

    point taken, academic pricing
    Unfortunately, that will not be available until Sep
    Something about the school can only submit list of students
    qualified once a year

    You can buy the academic version online. Also it might be available in the campus bookstore.
