Well, what version of Visual Studio are those projects built in? CodeProject articles always mention the target version at the top, so you should keep an eye on that. If you have VS 2008, you should be able to convert all previous version projects to the latest version.
I used to face this kind of problem when I worked on VS 2002 and every sample app on the web used to be built in VS 2003. Then, I had to manually convert them or use a converter (here's such a converter - http://ajaymatharu.wordpress.com/2008/10/21/visual-studio-higher-to-lower-version-converter/) On Apr 8, 9:13 pm, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > I have VS 2008 Express and am pretty new to development in general.
