Easy to upgrade from VS.NET 2003 to 2005?

Hi.
When I started using VS.NET 2003 there was no problem upgrading all my
projects to VS.NET 2003 Framework 1.1. Everything worked as it used to
under framework 1.0. Is it easy to upgrade from framework 1.1 to VS.NET
2005 Framework 2.0? Will everyting work as it used to, or do I have to
re-write some of my code?

Thanks
Shawn

The importer does a good job, but there are more issues between 1.x--> 2.0
than between 1.0 --> 1.1

You can certainly let the upgrade wizard go to work and then start from
there. Also, there are quite a few online resources:

It's hard to tell, it'll vary from project to project...

The Applications you write before will/should still target the 1.1 Framwork
as so should work as before. If you are going to use the code written for
1.1 to target a 2.0 Framework, you 'may' not have any issues, but thats not
gauranteed. Both Frameworks are installed side-by-side so you can use
either.

Yes, but since I intend to use VS.NET 2005 for all my projects they cannot
continue run under framework 1.1.

Then you may well have issues depending on the complexity and orthodox ( or
not ) nature of your project. You will need to devise a testing plan for
each application and transfer each to the new environment in a controlled
way.

Any other way of doing it would be like playing russian roulette.
