I have to continue to support VB6 applications. I’ve got both VB6 (Visual Studio 6) installed and Visual Studio 2008 as well. Can I read and write to VB6 projects while in Visual Studio 2008? Will it damage or destroy my VB6 application? It would be very cool if I could free up a lot of space and get rid of Visual Studio 6.

Visual Studio 2008 can’t compile VB6 applications. You could use it as a text editor only (though it will offer you the VB.NET IntelliSense, not VB6). However, you need Visual Studio 6 to be able to build your application.
