VB.net 2003 vs 2005beta2 compatibility

Hi,

I downloaded the VB.net 2005 beta 2 release and started coding some stuff towards a webservice. Also included windows form GUI with lots of objects.

Now I need to send this over to a colleague who is using VB.Net 2003 who will continue with it.

Will it be possible for him to open and continue on the project using VB.net 2003 or do we have to start from scratch again with the whole thing?

Any comments would be very much appreciated.

Joru -

Unfortunately you cannot move a Visual Basic 2005 project back to VB 2003; the file formats are different and there are a number of new thing in 2005 that didn't exist in 2003. He will have to recreate the UI in 2003, but if you provide your code in the form of a text file, he can cut and paste - most of the code should still be compatible.
