Need help converting 2005 project back to 2003
I recently converted a project to 2005. There were no problems.. however I now need to convert that project back to 2003 in order to give it to another developer. Is there a way to do this? I made no changes after conversion.

Take the backup that you have and give it to them.
You did tell the upgrade wizard to backup the project? Even so, you have the origional source code backed up elsewhere of course, don't you? Perhaps CD or DVD. Maybe it's in a source control. You must have a copy, somewhere...If not, you will have to admit you screwed up big time. This should be the one and only time it ever happens (every developer is allowed to mess up like this once in their whole life).
However, all my be not lost, you may be able to take the actual code files and recreate the project: the .vb files, etc. by creating a new project and adding the files. I'm not sure since I usually would just take the backup in this situation...
