XNA Project Changer - Work your XNA Project in VS2005/VS2008

Benjamin Nitschke's Blog -  Xna Project Changer Tool (with VS 2008 support)

"I wrote a little tool almost a year ago to help me coding XNA directly in VS 2005 instead of using XNA Game Studio Express, which does not support addins....

This tool does not do much, but it is still very useful like the AnnoyingFilesRemover. I use it almost daily when developing and testing XNA projects. It converts projects from VS Express to VS 2005 and VS 2008 and back, you can also use it for VS 2008 (Orcas) projects, which can be openend in VS 2005 again (and compile if you don't use .NET 3.5, but even that works to a certain degree with the LINQ May 2006 CTP). I will try to update this tool when newer versions of XNA (like the XNA Game Studio 2.0) and VS 2008 (like the beta 2 next week) come out, exciting times are ahead :)

..."

This is a simple tool for those who want to code their XNA projects in Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2008 (say for example you have about "one million" VS addins that you just can't live without... etc)
