Started to open the 1.707 source in VS2010 and the conversion wizard wanted to do something to it.



If I had gone ahead to convert would the solution still open in VS2008 ?



(currently I'm considering renaming the source folder then reinstalling in the default folder and only opening the renamed source folder to play with in VS2010



Kudos, by the way, for the added support for 2010. BigGrin

You have the option of setting the target .NET in 2010. ( it is VERY cool )



The conversion didn't actualy convert anything, but I opened a copy instead of the default folder source.



Just installing 1.707 hooked SF into the VS2010 IDE as well, where it seems to be very happy.



Suggest anyone working with VS2010 immediately find the Snippet Designer add-on. Awesome.



I am going to experiment some more with some 3.5 projects to see if I can open and mod them in VS2010 and still work them in VS2008. Seems it would only be a problem if you referenced .net 4.0

The problem with that is that many of the new functionality to the VB language is in VS2010 like no need to put an underscore to brake a line and many other. The whole idea of VS2008 & VS2010 to support all .Net runtime was to be able to upgrade to the new VS2010 and still keep your project in whatever runtime version you want but take advantage of the new features in the new VS version and in this case there are ton of new features for developers in VS2010.
