New set-up with Visual Studio 2008?

Hi, I'm new to mojoportal and am setting up my first project in my local IDE. I've spent time reading documentation and preparing my environment, and I was able to grab all the latest code using tortoisehg. I have visual studio 2008 professional - and when I go to open the solutions (mojoportal.net35), it does not allow me to open, stating that it's targeted to a newer version. checking the SLN file confirms this... while I have been able to play around with the files locally and get most projects to load in a modified solution, some projects point to 4.0... is there a better way to start developing in 2008? would I be better off downloading 2010 web developer express? I'm used to having enterprise software and am concerned about the reduced feature set. thanks, Ed

Re: New set-up with Visual Studio 2008?

See the README.VisualStudio.txt file in the root of the source code, it requires VS 2010 or the free Visual Web Developer Express 2010, we no longer support VS 2008.

Possibly you qualify to get VS 2010 from the Web Site Spark Program.
