Web site with out project file.

My vb compiler complains that my website has an improper reference to an
external project.
"In a situation where a project makes both a project reference and a file
reference, the compiler cannot guarantee that one type can be converted to
another."

How can I remove a project references when my web site does not have a
project file?

Your quickest solution would be to just build a new project and put in it
what you need from the other project to see if that corrects your problem.

Website are not projects in VS 2005. There is an add-in for VS 2005 that
makes them projects. I have to look for that add-in.

Look for SP1, then. But be warned it can take "a while" to install.

Or, if you have an MSDN subscription, get VS 2008 ;-p

SP1 does not solve the various compilation problems I have. The C# compiler
seems to have better quality than the VB compiler in my opinion, but I am
stuck with VB.
Yes I have a copy of VS 2008. I have libraries on the side of website and VS
2008 wants to convert my project files, which will not work for my client.

Maybe not, but it should address the post I replied to:
<q>

that

</q>
Also - note that for project references in web-sites, I believe that
these are declared in the solution file. So perhaps backup-and-remove
your "sln" file, and load the web-site into a new solution.
