I have a sample project that I downloaded. It apparently required WM6 SDK so
I have downloaded and installed the WM6 SDK Standard. But when I attempt to
open the .csproj file VS2005 gives me:

"The project could not be opened because it refers to a device platform that
does not exist in your datastore."
In the .csproj file is the following..
<PlatformID>f27da329-3269-4191-98e0-c87d3d7f1db9</PlatformID>
<OSVersion>5.2</OSVersion>

I built a blank project and targetted the WM6 device, saved the project and
this is what is in the blank project's .csproj file...

<PlatformID>f27da329-3269-4191-98e0-c87d3d7f1db9</PlatformID>
<OSVersion>5.02</OSVersion>


Can anyone tell me what it is I need to do to open this project?

Change the project file's target platform to match one that is installed on
your PC - even if it's PPC2003.
