I have a requirement to use simple project files which were created on 2003
on 2002 version of .NET. This is because the customer site does not yet have
2003 but the course projects were written in 2003.

I have loaded the 1.1 framework on vs2002 but need to know if there is a
simple or otherwise way to change the project somehow to make it load on
2002?

TIA

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:

Thanks guys, I found this after I had posted as a matter of fact and it
works a treat.
