We moved a large 3 tier MFC/ATL application to VS2005 last year but I never did figure out how to move our old ATL Wizard logic into VS2005. Whenever I have needed to use the wizard, I run it under VS6 and then re-convert the project files to VS2005. Now I am looking at moving to VS2008 and the problem will get worse.

How do I move my ATL object templates from VS6 to VS2005/VS2008?

My template code under VS6 is installed under:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Template\ATL

There is registery entries to enable the wizard under:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DevStudio.0\ATLWizard


Under VS2005, the following appears to be the correct directory for the source code but I am not sure and also not sure about registry:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\VCWizards\CodeWiz\ATL\Control\Templates33

Thanks for any help you can offer.
