Downgrading to vs2005

  • Thread starter Thread starter John
  • Start date Start date
You could create a new 2005 project and then import the code modules into
it, but the 2008 project files themselves (.vbproj/.csproj) are not
downgradeable without serious editing.
 
I have done a db app in vs2008 and it is not working. I am just wondering if
there is a bug in vs2008 and that the app may work in vs 2005.

Here is the hugely cut down version of the app to test the problem;

Out of curiosity, why would you want to downgrade your IDE?

John,

You shold be able to open the csproj files directly in vs2005. It is only
the solution files that have been changed in vs 2008.

Hi John,

Bind like this and you'll be fine:

db = New System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Text", ds, "Clients.ID")
txtID.DataBindings.Add(db)
db = New System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Text", ds, "Clients.Company")
txtCompany.DataBindings.Add(db)

You might also consider binding using the designer ;-)
 
Hi Miha

Many thanks for that. Fixed my problem.

Thanks again.
