Steps technically in conversion from VS2003 to VS2005

The conversion wizard will then perform a few steps:


  1. Update the project file to be a VS 2005 MSBuild based project file
  2. Add an xhtmlcompliance section within your web.config file to enable "legacy" html rendering
  3. Update your web project to go directly against IIS instead of use FrontPage Server Extensions
  4. Fixup any language changes between .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0
