Hi Group,

Is it possible to Open a Project saved in Visual Basic 2003, in Visual Basic

Many Thanks

Not natively but there is a utility on CodeProject you can use that will
help.

Hi,

The free utility VS Convert will convert project formats for you.

There is no built-in way to do that, because parts of the VB.NET 2003
code may not be compatible with the older version. Nevertheless, you
can use this tool to save the project in 2002 format:
