If I have a VS.NET project/solution for C++ (.vcproj and .sln), how can I
convert this back into a VS 6.0 project/workspace?

By hand. Create a VC6 project and add the files to it. I don't know of any
tool to automate the process.

-cd
 
Go for it. It wouldn't be hard - just tedious. Fortunately, the .NET
project file format is documented, and the VC6 format is basically unchanged
since VC4 (or earlier).

Could you please point me to where the .NET project file format is
documented?

why would you want to move backwards?

Later compilers and IDEs fix bugs (and add new ones :D)

Because at the company here we use C++ .NET 2002.
Moving to 2003 will probably result in having an new series of new bugs
maybe breaking our code.
And a complete new testing phase of the software. :-(

But some examples on the Internet are now in 2003. So I cannot open these
new example projects.
