Converting from vb 2008 to 2005

Hi,

Ive been completing an assignment for uni at home using vb express 2008 but i need to convert it back so that it can be used in uni which is on 2005. Does anyone have any idea of how to do this? Ive been looking through MSDN and the help files within the program but cannot see anything.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can "downvert" visual c++ project files easily with 3rd party apps, so I assume something out there exists for VB.

I was working on a VB project for my AS level Computing at home, and I was in the same situation as you; I ended up just copying and pasting the code from the .vb files into ones at school, as it's only the vb project file that is different.

I've never done it, but have you tried creating a new project in VB 2005 and adding all the files in again?
