Compile a Solution in VS Express which was written in VS Professional

Question

I'm wanting to perform some maintenance on a C# project created in Visual Studio 2008 Professional. I'm running Visual Studio 2010 Express.

Are there any pitfalls/limitation in opening the solution, converting the solution to VS '10 Express, compiling, and publishing with ClickOnce?

I've converted the solution, and all seems fine. But I want to make sure of a few things:

Will VS warn me if the original solution contains projects that cannot be converted/compiled? I know that VS Express can't create Unit Test / Load Test and some other projects (see this answer). But what happens to these parts of the solution? Am I potentially limiting the solution by loading it up in VS Express? If the solution is reopened in VS Pro later, will those Load Tests, etc load up?

Answer 1

If you received no errors when converting the project you are safe.
