[2005] Build Failed

[dogboydelta]

My project says 'Build Failed' when I try to build it. I have 95 warnings, but no errors. Why is it failing? Is there too many warnings?

Do you have "Treat compiler warnings as errors" checked or unchecked?

I got this working, finally, converting a project from 2003 to 2005. A few notes that may be useful:

1. Sometimes VS 2005 gets flaky. It was like every time I compiled it there was a different number of warnings. This is rare, but when it happens, reboot your computer to fix the problem.

2. Make sure before you convert, delete all those extra directories that are created that start with an underscore, like the _vta_axd

Look at the task list in Visual Studio. There will be errors and warnings there. Most of them will probably be XHTML formatting errors, so scroll to the bottom for the coding errors.
