VS2008 vs VS2005

Yes, "continue" is now a keyword in VB .NET 2005 and so a variable called
"continue" would cause problems. Also, using the new partial class
structure (and holding the Windows Forms Generated code in the "designer.vb"
file) is how new forms are created, but existing forms that do not make use
of this structure is still allowed.

That's good to know. I haven't done it myself yet. I think I've already
opened and recompiled all my 2003 projects in 2005. It did whatever it
was going to do and I didn't have to touch the code. I noticed it did
change one thing I was using a variable named "continue" that it now calls
"[continue]". I also notice it leaves the Windows Generated code section
in there like it was in 2003. If I'd created a new project in 2005 that
section would not be in there.
Yes, that is what I'm saying. But, be advised that the VS .NET upgrade
wizard doesn't actually change any of your code, it changes the project
and solution files to use the new MSBuild engine.

After the wizard is complete, a conversion report will be generated with
information about coding issues that may need to be addressed.
