Posting a VS Pro vs. VS Express project

    Posting a VS Pro vs. VS Express project

    I was wondering if I setup a project made for XNA 2.0 that I created with VS8 Pro, will the project file be able to be opened "as is" with VS Express?

    I'm hoping I don't have to setup multiple projects in order to support those who do not have VS Pro.

    The .csproj files are identical between both. The one thing that is different is that some UI options are not available in VCSExpress. So if you set something to a non-default value in Pro, someone using Express might not be able to change it back (without manually editing the .csproj XML). This probably isn't very common, but something to keep in mind.
