Suguna,
Welcome to JavaRanch!

If you want to use J2EE 1.4, you must upgrade to RAD 6.0. If you are deploying a J2EE 1.3 app to WAS 6.1, you can continue to WSAD 5.1.2. However, you lose the ability to test locally on a "6" series server. This is a bit of a risk as you may find problems later in the game.

Regardless of whether you have to, it is a good practice to upgrade the two together. Or more specifically, to upgrade the IDE first so you know of issues before upgrading the server.

The changes depend on whether you are using any deprecated features.
