Backing up a project

How do you do it?

Hi,

This just seems to be the most noob question I've ever had to ask. I've been using vb.net in the visual studio .net environment for a month or so. I can save the progress of a project as I go along, but I cant save it to anywhere apart from the visual studio projects folder. I can save the form I'm working on to different places, but not the project. If I try to copy the project folder, and paste it to a backup folder it refuses to load when I return it to the visual studio projects folder. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

You talk about the "project file", but are you talking about the solution .sln file? I've found that frequently the .sln file in .NET can't be opened for some reason or another. Open the .vbproj file instead. This seems to always work.

Cheers, that seems to of been it!
