Hi,

Thanks,
Stephen

No, because it's not possible.
There are new functions in 2005(2.0) which are not known in 2003 (1.1).

Sure it is. I mean, 2.0 might have generics, but you could just convert a
List<T> to an ArrayList.

I don't think there's any automatic converters though - and as the project
grows in size/complexity, you'll start banging ur head, but there's no
reason why you can't manually do it.

Just port one piece over at a time, build, fix any errors and repeat.

Question is, why do you want to?

Hi Karl,

I wanted a sample app to monitor processes using .NET
Juan (from newsgroups), suggested me to look at this:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fy81t8yk.aspx

and it has a sample code, but when i try to open it it says "the selected
file is a visual studio solution file, but was created by a newer version of
visual studio and cannot be opened"
so was wondering if I can convert it to a lower version.

I also tried to create it manually but the sample app makes use of controls
that are using .NET(2.0)

Please advice,
Stephen

I'm sure you can hack the sln file to work, but the simplest way is probably
to create a new solution and add the source files. If, as you say, 2.0
controls are being used, you'll need to find out how to do it in 1.1...

There is NO WAY an previous version can anticipate the format of previous
versions.

Are you saying that 2005 can't save in 2003 format? THEN you have an
argument, and I might agree. But if you sare saying that 2003 can't open
native 2005 format, then NO program, Labview, Mathematica..or ANY previous
program can anticipate future file versions. Perhaps I just don't understand
your English
