Microsoft will hand developers early beta code of its next-generation database and Visual Studio platform and a technical preview of its next Windows client at its Professional Developers Conference (PDC) later this month.

During a meeting with CRN on Tuesday at company headquarters, Microsoft executives confirmed that the company will make available another "private beta" of Yukon, its next generation database, and early beta code of its next version of Visual Studio, code-named Whidbey, to attendees of PDC 2003 beginning Oct. 26.
