Migrating Application created in Visual Basic Express Beta 2

The following is BACKGROUND history to my question:
1I downloaded the Visual Basic 2005 Express Beta 2 development environment (referred to Beta 2 below)IN OCTOBER 2004 and created an application with it.
2The downloaded Beta 2 just expired on 01JUL05F
3I uninstalled the OLD beta 2 & then downloaded and installed the new Beta 2
4The application I built AND THE PROJECT FILE of course do not run or load (resoectively) properly in the new Beta 2.

QUESTION: What is the best sequence of procedures to migrate my old Beta 2 application to the New Beta 2 development environment ?

Your response is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not sure of all the steps, but the first 2 steps are
1) Backup
2) Backup

I've upgraded alot of projects, and i've found that using 3rd party com objects give me alot of problems.
