I am corrently working with several projects on the Visual Studio 2003. I
want to know if there is any problem if we import them to Visual Studio
2005?...

I am afraid to loose time doing it and then realize that doesn't worth it...

Thanks in Advance :D
 
well, if you've got any doubt 1st make a backup.
In fact make a backup whatsoever.
Then just open with VS2005, hit F5 and it should just runs fine!
It's what I love with VS, you could open open all project vs2003, VC6, VC5,
VC4.. hit F5 and it just runs!

Hummmm

ok... it runs well... and transform the application on .Net 2?
Is there any way to do it?
Dows it Work Fine?

yes.

to do what? do you mean what it just does?
Dows it Work Fine?
didn't I say already yes?

if you like long answer:
When I was younger I often heard people complaining of 'supposed version
incompatibilites' with Microsoft problem.
That has always puzzled me because I always found Microsoft to be very
backward compatible. Even more so the VisualStudio line.
I used to have latest release since a while, it always
open/convert/compiles/run flawlessly all project I found on the web.
That was one of my great satisfaction.
About using .NET 1.1, well honestly, you can't use 1.0 or 1.1 with VS2005
(at least without a lots of tweaks, I believe I have heard it might be
possible). so that only let 2.0 as the only player in town, doesn't it seems
so?

But give it a try for free with VC# express!
Or maybe try for free the full version on the net. I think they have some
test labs, you've got to rummage though the MSDN web site.

Well, what else can I say?
Ho, maybe some reference?

If you open a VS 2003 project / solution with VS2005 then it will
automatically upgrade it to VS2005. Make sure you have a backup. You will
not be able to open it with VS2003 once you upgrade. There may be some
things that need to be addressed before it will compile. It took me 2
minutes to address these issues and I was up and running. In the long run
you will want to eliminate the deprecated methods.
