VS 2012 solution and projects - incompatible with VS 2010?
compatibility, visual-studio-2010, visual-studio-2012
Solution
If you create a solution with visual studio 2012 on the top of your solution-file there are the following two lines:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 12.00
# Visual Studio 2012
You can Replace the Version 12 to 11. And than the solution should work in Visual Studio 2010. I'm not sure if the visual studio 2010 can handle project-files which have target .net-framework 4.5
Problem
I was under the assumption the solutions and / or C# projects created in VS 2012 could also be opened in VS 2010 (with SP1 applied). But I wasn't able to do so - VS 2010 didn't want to load the solution file, and after I manually "tweaked" it, now it complains about the `*.csproj` project file being incompatible with this current version of VS 2010 ..... What am I missing?
