Q: 

Convert VS2005 dtsx project from to VS2008

I have a numnber of dtsx projects created under VS2005.

When I try to convert the solution to 2008 it converts fine but then the .dtproj file can't be loaded:

myProj.dtproj' cannot be opened because its project type (.dtproj) is not supported by this version of the application.

I have SQLServer2005 installed but I got rid of VS2005 as I am moving all my projects to VS2008.

Any help appreciated!

+1  A: 

Reinstall the shell for BIDS. You can't use VS 2008 with SQL Server 2005 dtsx.

how do I do that? Does that mean I have to keep VS2005? I was hoping to completely get rid of it.

Run the setup in Tools subfolder. Choose Client Components -> Business Intelligence Development Studio.
