c# express interoperability with VS2003

[Guest]

with c# express package, when I open a product created in VS 2003, it opens a
conversion wizard. After doing what I need to do in c# express, how can I
resave the package so that it will once again work in VS 2003? conversion
wizard? Is the 2005 express backwardly compatible with 2003?

AFAIK, the conversion is one-way. However, it makes a backup of the project
file before the conversion is made.

The Express products give you access to many new language features (e.g.
Generics) and classes (e.g. GridView) that aren't available in Visual Studio
2003 so there is no way to make projects backwards compatible.
