There seems to be some confusion about the new July CTP, and how to use it without a new build of Orcas (in fact, Orcas is just the dev environment, and you should be able to use the July framework with the June build of Orcas). In order to help clarify which build is right for you, Tom Archer has posted a thorough discussion of the differences between the different builds and how to get the right combination of tools (thanks Ashish for the tip).

According to this on Channel 9, http://channel9.msdn.com/wiki/default.aspx/Cider.FAQJuneCTPRefresh, you can’t.

Will the June CTP Refresh be compatible with the .Net Framework 3.0 July CTP?
NO. You must always use matching releases of VS Code Name ‘Orcas’ and .Net Framework 3.0 CTPs. The VS June CTP Refresh is indeed an update, but it is still based on the .Net Framework 3.0 June CTP platform. The VS June CTP Refresh installer will block if you try to install it on top of anything other than the .Net Framework 3.0 June CTP.
