C# projects

C# project questions:

1. In a C#.net solution that was maintained by a team of programmers, is
there a way to tell how to get the build to locate no errors when it is
compiled. Basically I would like to know the order of items to try to get a
large solution to compile.
**I am asking that question since the programmers that worked on this large
application have moved on to other programming teams in the company. I am
told that this C#.net 2008 application did compile clean 6 months ago and no
changes have been made to the application.
Basically are there some suggestions you have on what to try to get the
compile errors/warnings to decrease?
2. How can you tell the manner of how different projects within the same
solution communicate with each other? Basically are delegates used,linq,
DLLs, used?

Fix the problems in the code.

Look at the code.

PS: Yes - that was two cynical answers. But there are no magic in
programming - it is hard work.

If the project and files truly haven't changed, then you have a
reference problem -- one or more of your projects reference one or more
dll's that aren't on the machine you're using to build the solution.

(A good reason to have a build server).
