Can do I use TFPT 2008 with VS2005/TFS2008?

We have TFS 2008 but use Visual Studio 2005. I would like to use some of the features from tfpt.exe 2008 but when I try to install tfpt, it will not install the commandline tool.

My guess is that it won't install it because I don't have Visual Studio 2008. Can anyone confirm this? Does anyone know how to get around this?

Since we use TFS 2008 I don't see any reason why I shouldn't be able to use TFPT 2008. thanks.

You can use Visual Studio 2005 with TFS 2008.

But you cannot access client functionality that is specific to TFS 2008 with Visual Studio 2005.

TFPT is a client side tool so it requires VS 2008.

TFPT = Team Foundation Power Tools
