Console programs yes. GUI programs no?

[357mag]

All of my console programs were made in Visual Studio 2015. I know I can just open the source code file in Notepad and copy it, and then paste it in the window of a Visual Studio 2019 project. Save it. Build it. And it will run just fine.
But what about Windows programs? GUI programs in other words. I would imagine a GUI program generates more types of files that would need to be imported into Visual Studio 2019.

So that would not work would it?

I would have to just make the GUI program over I suspect.

A solution created in an older version of VS can be opened in a newer version. In some cases, some changes will be made to solution and project files and possibly some others. Simply open VS 2019 (or, better yet, VS 2022) and use the File -> Open menu item to open the existing solution.
