Hi All,

Am trying to upgrade my solution from Visual Studio 2008 to 2010,
i need to upgrade only solution file, but inside the solution i have 8 more projects,
My approach is creating a blank solution in VS 2010 then adding the project under the solution one by one.
but, here while adding the project(vs 2008) under 2010 solution it again ask for project conversion!, so, am i doing correct, or is there any other way to do it? please suggest me some proven concepts to go through.

Thanks in advance,
Preethu

VS requires you to upgrade both solution and project files, so there isn't a work around here, you must convert all of them.

1) Create a backup copy of your solution and all files (using source control is preferred).

2) Open your solution file with Visual Studio 2010 and it will automatically upgrade your project files and give you a report of error if they exist.

3) Go through the errors an fix then to compile.
