I have VB.net 2002 and am trying to open the samples from
101 Visual Basic.Net Applications.

They won't load, saying they were created by a more
recent version of Visual Studio.

Should these examples open in VB2002? Do I need the full
Visual Studio rather than just VB (despite the title of
the book)?

That message usually appears when the solution was developed in Visual
Studio .NET 2003 and you are running 2002. You should need only Visual
Basic, not all of Visual Studio.
What does the author have to say about software version used to produce the
examples?
If they were produced in 2003, there are ways to modify them to load in
2002:

Hope this helps.
