Windows 7 - Multiple versions of visual studio only updating older version

Hello,

I have two versions of visual studio installed (2005 and 2008).  When I use
microsoft update to try to get updates, I only see visual studio 2005 in the
updates to show up?

Thanks

Are you sure, there are any available, besides "Hotfixes" ?

I am not sure there are any...however, I would at least expect Visual Studio
2008 to show up in the "Select By Product" menu.  Visual Studio 2005 shows up
with (0) updates.  I would expect the same functionality for Visual Studio
2008.  It seems like it is only seeing the 2005 product.

Thanks again
