Using VC7 STL in VC6?

 Using VC7 STL in VC6?

Will VC++ 6 be able to compile the STL files of VC++ .NET?  I have read that
the latter's STL is much improved and I wonder if I can simply use it in
VC++ 6.

No.  VC7's STL makes use of new compiler features AFAIK.

Correct. Much of the V7 code won't compile with V6. The nearest you
can come to all the new features is with our upgrade library, but that
costs money.
