[02/03] Open 2005 project in 2002

Hi all,

Im new in .NET environment. Is there any way to open a vb2005 project in a vb2002 environment? If yes, please explain to me how.
Thanks in advance. - newbie here.

Welcome to the forums.

I dont believe you can. Also as the 2005 version is running on the 2.0 framework it wouldnt run under the 1.0 framework version.

There isn't. The code generated by VS 2005 is not valid in VS.NET 2002. If you need to open a VS 2005 project then you can get VB 2005 Express for free from Microsoft.

you can however open some of the files in notepad or wordpad to view the code but without having the 2005 ide you cant do too much with it.

Thanks all. Yes i've tried with 2003 and i manage to open the project so im thinking same goes with vs2005.
Thanks again for the reply.

Just a general question, is it possible i compile my project in vb2002/2003 as a web base application. Its for my assignment on web application with vb.net.
