Who has Visual Studio 2005 can't read the project because the format file is not recognized: jpStickiesVB2008.sln.
The workaround is to create a new solution file jpStickiesVB2005.sln and paste in the file the following text:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 9.00 # Visual Studio 2005 Project("{F184B08F-C81C-45F6-A57F-5ABD9991F28F}") = "jpStickiesVB2008", "jpStickiesVB2008\jpStickiesVB2008.vbproj", "{74D60A93-CCE1-4E86-9CB4-0A0D37B34240}" EndProject Global GlobalSection(SolutionConfigurationPlatforms) = preSolution Debug|Any CPU = Debug|Any CPU Release|Any CPU = Release|Any CPU EndGlobalSection GlobalSection(ProjectConfigurationPlatforms) = postSolution {74D60A93-CCE1-4E86-9CB4-0A0D37B34240}.Debug|Any CPU.ActiveCfg = Debug|Any CPU {74D60A93-CCE1-4E86-9CB4-0A0D37B34240}.Debug|Any CPU.Build.0 = Debug|Any CPU {74D60A93-CCE1-4E86-9CB4-0A0D37B34240}.Release|Any CPU.ActiveCfg = Release|Any CPU {74D60A93-CCE1-4E86-9CB4-0A0D37B34240}.Release|Any CPU.Build.0 = Release|Any CPU EndGlobalSection GlobalSection(SolutionProperties) = preSolution HideSolutionNode = FALSE EndGlobalSection EndGlobal
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- the difference among the two files are only the first two lines: --- Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 10.00 # Visual Basic Express 2008 --- Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 9.00 # Visual Studio 2005 --- The sample code run also with Visual Studio 2005 !!!
