How would you open a Visual Studio 2010 .sln file in Visual Studio 2008?
Is it possible? Are there any workarounds?

A:
Have a look at these questions for information about how to convert the solution file between VS2008 and VS2010:
But keep in mind, that once you have used some of the .NET 4 features (while in VS 2010), you will not be able to continue working with that solution in VS2008, since it does not support .NET 4. On the other hand, when using VS2010, you can still target .NET 3.5 or 2.0.

I've done just that before in order to load sample files from online tutorials written for VS2010. They have always opened for me okay in VS2008. The code also executed fine, but I could have been lucky in that they all used a common API.
