If you open your project in VS2010, it will try to convert it and tell you of any issues. Usually it just works fine. If not, edit your code to fix it.

I've got a warning and 4 error when I want to build the solution after converting. I do not know what they means!

The warning is:
Use command line option '/keyfile' or appropriate project settings instead of 'AssemblyKeyFile'

and this is one of the errors:
Metadata file 'E:\My Document\Library\Controls\CodeProject\WindowsDateTimePicker\FarsiLibrary_src\out\FarsiLibrary.Resources\FarsiLibrary.Resources.dll' could not be found

So the library is missing. Or it's incompatible ?

I checked and it was right there and also it was added to the project.
I do not know how make them compatible!

It's a CP article, so convert/add the source code to your project and import it from there.

Yes, I have downloaded from CP, but it has written in .Net2 and my project is in .Net4. There is no newer version.

Christian Graus 27-Aug-12 16:13pm

So, convert it, too.

The problem starts since I converted that!
I am talking about that from start.

is any tool available in the market that can convert .net 2.0 to .net 4.0?

Christian Graus 27-Aug-12 16:44pm

Visual studio does it, no other tool is needed. you just need to work out how to update this control.

Well, i had read i think more than 15 forums now, i didn`t try it yet but it seems like every one is saying when you convert it through VS 2010 there would be some errors or library or some thing else. i just wanna ask what type of error would occur? and how can we solve it?
