I have written a web site (with other class projects) in VS.net 2003
(VB.Net). What
does it take to convert to Visual Studio.Net 2005? Can the 2003 project just
be opened up in 2005? Will that convert it. The interface for 2005 very
different from 2003.
 
When you will try to open VS2003 in VS@005 wizard will guide you through the
conversion process. If it is a small project the conversion should complete
without any errors.
Interface is different but not very :-)
 
You can convert it, yes.

What you may want to do prior to conversion is install the following add-on
for VS 2005:

It creates a new project type called Web Application Project, which behaves
more like VS 2003 web applications, with the entire site compiling into a
single assembly, rather than the default with VS 2005, which is to have each
web page be its own assembly.
