  In my class we must use Visual Studio 2003, but I am extremely excited that I have recently got a copy of Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition (Microsoft presentation in my city).  I have been told that there is a way to save a project from 2005, and then open it in 2003, but I have been unable to find where this feature is hiding.  Any help is much appreciated.

• Visual Studio Team System Does TFS have it's own SCM, separate from VSS

  After installing TFS, I installed VSS 2005 on the server (seemed the obvious thing to do).  I'm now confused as to whether TFS has SCM built in, or whether it just uses VSS 2005. Yes, TFS has a brand new source control system.  In VS 2005, you can select what source control provider you want using Tools -> Options, select the Source Control node, and then change the source control plug-in with the co ...Show All
