    Will VS 2003 projects work under VS 2005?

    I am planning to install VS 2005 and uninstall VS 2003, so just wanted to know if the older programs, created in VS 2003 and Framework 1.1, will work with VS 2005 and under Framework 2.0??

    Thank you

    Yes and no. Yes because you can convert a 2003 project to 2005 but there may be limitations depending on the code used. Also, 2.0 breaks backwards compatibility so some functions may no longer be available with 2.0. Some tweaking and rewritting may be necessary.
