Converting .proj files from 2003 to 2005

I need to create a large number of VS 2005 .csproj files from an equal number
of VS 2003 .csproj files so that I can use msbuild with MSBee to build .NET
1.1 software.

My question, is there a command line utility that can be scripted that would
take as input a vs 2003 .csproj file and make a vs 2005 .csproj file with a
different file name? I want to keep the orinals around for backward
compatability, at least for the short term. Does anything like this exist,
yet?

Thanks.

hey, I found it. devenv.exe /upgrade (devenv.exe is the executable name of
vs, have to make sure to use the 2005 version of devenv.)

Though this does overwrite the original file, I can script it to copy the
original file, and perform the upgrade on that. I just wonder if I can turn
off the backup option, since I'm doing this pre-upgrade.
