visual studio 2005 - .NET 1.1 to .NET 2.0 Website Upgrade -CSPROJ Error -

good morning gurus,

i've been searching on week. i've tried few solutions none of them seems working me. have old web site created (not me, else) using vs2003 .net 1.1 , need upgrade .net 2.0 (no newer versions allowed). created new virtual directory in local iis environment, changes de app pool 2.0, set solution there , opened vs2005. solution contains 5 (the main project , 4 more in charge of db connections , other tasks... kind of n tiers project) projects inside. after vs2005 performs conversion there 2 of projects returning next error:

the project file must opened in visual studio ide , converted latest version before can built msbuild

i have tried:

running msbuild [projname] command prompt comparing csproj files see differences unloading , loading project again using vs2010 conversion (gave me 200+ errors)

i cannot figure out difference. compared csproj other 2 project seems pass conversion , seem same.

if relevant application done using c# (csproj - cs stands csharp...)

please share little lite me this. want pointed right track prepare because not know else do.

thanks in advance!

i fixed problem , want share solution gurus. after taking few steps (including developing console application converted csproj file using msbuild) realized cspoj files in right format. when clicked on error in visual studio 2005 showed me file in old format. have re-create of application prior converted in directory , references in new upgraded version pointing projects. removed references projects , add together them 1 time again know create sure references pointing new csproj files. problem solved! @ to the lowest degree until point.

i hope help in future.

good luck!
