Integration with VS 2005 should work. I tested it on my machine and I
can even create PDA (compact framework) applications with GNAT GPL 2009
for .Net. I remember that quite some time ago there was a thread on the
problems of integrating GNAT GPL 2008 in Visual Studio. I believe the
problem was solved in the registry.

BTW, You can try my experimental project DartScore
on http://www.xs4all.nl/~veenker/links.html. It has a VS 2005 project
which demonstrates the use of C# combined with Ada.
