Read and Step into .Net Framework Source Code with VS 2005

Question

I did ask whether this was possible in VS 2008 which was answered in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1296840/read-and-step-into-net-framework-source-code.

However my problem is that I am using 2005 and not 2008.

Does anyone know whether this is possible please??

The reason I want to do this is to better understand C# paradigms. With Java this is possible and I learnt a tremendous amount by being able to read code written by engineers

Answer 1

Yes should be able to.

If you download the beta version of .NET Reflector 6 it has a Visual Studio plugin that allows you to do step-through-debugging on assemblies that you don't have the source code to.

I read on a blog that they were going to support VS 2005, although I've never tired myself...
