[Tony Clark]

Hi,

is it possible to easily convert a visual studio 2005 C# project to visual
studio 2003 ?

thanks

Tony,

No, I would assume not. The build system between 2005 and 2003 are
completely different, the former using MSBUILD, the latter using the old
build system (which is a black box). MSBUILD is extremely extensible,
supporting entry points into the build process that the VS.NET 2003 build
system just didn't have.

Hope this helps.

No really , remember that lot of things like partial classes are not
supported in 2003
