I try to use the one they have in vs 2005 but it won't convert it because i have a source code for a shutdown program but can't convet it does anybody know how?
99.99% of all VB.NET 2003 code will work without change in VB 2005. If you have something that won't then you're going to have to show us what it is. Also, the IDE would tell what the errors are.
What? Very little breaking changes were done in VB 2005 compared to 2003. You should be able to open the project, convert it (it'll ask) and compile fixing any issues it lists.
What's the problem? :confused: Could you post some code or screenshots or a more detail issue?
EDIT: Bah, jmcilhinney beating me by a few seconds :(

and this one http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/shutdownwin.asp
i tried to convert them in vs2005 but they won't dunno why
I just downloaded all three of those projects and they all converted, opened and ran in 2005 without issue.
Are you getting an error message or anything?
ok thanks for the quick responses i'll take screen shots right now to show exactly what my problem is
All that image does is confirm that the conversion failed, but it doesn't give us any information as to why. You have a conversion report there. What does it say?
do you have .net2.0 installed?
yea i have .net 2.0 but don't have 1.1 or 1.0 could that be my problem but if i installed older version won't that stop 2.0 from working right? and all i get in the log is this

No, both 1.1 and 2.0 can be installed on the saem machine without any problems (as far as i know) I have both the frameworks installed and have both VS 2003 & 2005 installed. Till now I have had no problems at all.
ok thanks i'll install 1.1 then and hopefully that will fix my problem
That log doesn't really tell us much either. Thanks Microsoft. Anyway, I can't really tell you why I can convert them, using VB and C# Express no less, and you can't, but here's those three projects after my conversion so you should be able to use them at least.
ok thx alot jmcilhinney and i'm gonna let .net framework 1.1 and 1.1 sp1 download tonight and i'll install them and i'll post back if it worked or not and hopefully it'll help somebody else sometime down the road
well i installed 1.1 and 1.1 sp1 od .net framework and one of them now opens up which is one of the c# source codes i might need 1.0 of .net framework to so i'll try that next
