I have recently installed VC#, VC++ and VB 2005 Express Edition. Someone
had sent me the sln file to load it into C# and so I tried, and I get an
error saying:
"The application for project "C:\...\fbridge.vcproj" is not installed."
"Make sure the application for the project type (.vcproj) is installed."
The app is called Test, and there appears to be some kind of reference in
there that calls this fbridge.vcproj. I can see the latter in one f the
directories, but cannot get it to open.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanx,

Each .vcproj file is nothing more than a shortcut to an actual C#++ project.
But, having the shortcut doesn't help you if you don't have the project
sources files as well (as you've found out).

A .vcproj file is the VC++ project file containing the project definitions used by the C++
build system.

Guess you meant .... "to an actual VC++ project".
Willy.
Actually I do have the .vcproj files, they are in a subdirectory. However,
I am sure that the directory strucutre of the sender was different and
perhaps that is why it is not finding the project. Is there some file or
some place in the IDE where the path can be respecified?

The best thing to do is to create a new solution with a new project from
scratch and simply import the old files into the new project. You will need
to re-make any non-standard project references and change any customized
project/solution properties to match the original.

As I told you previously, this is a C++ project file, you can't use this from C# Express .
So you need to use VC++ Express to build this project. Guess the original solution was built
using VS2005 Professional NOT Express, Express editions cannot handle mixed solutions.
Willy.
Well Willy has provided a more specific answer to the main problem you are
having, but my suggestion simply requires making a new project and importing
your raw source code files. Honestly, if you don't know how to create a new
solution and put files into it, you may want to stop where you are and read
through the documentation of the software. You won't get very far if you
don't understand the concept of a solution and how to create one.

OK. Thanx. I was not aware of one key fact, that "Express editions cannot
handle mixed solutions"
Thanx, now looks like I have to pay MS some more money (I recently purchased
VS.Net 2003 Enterprise thinking I could always get 2005 free when I needed
it). Darn!

Why would you think that? If you buy Office 2003, it doesn't mean you get
Office 2007 for free.
I don't believe the OP has the project files to import, only the raw source
code files. That's why I suggested he make new project and import the
project files into it.

Simply create a new .sln and add the project as an Existing project by
right clicking on the sloution in the Solution Explorer.
