Answer 1

You can convert a project from VS2010 to VS2012 by doing the following:

1. Add the 2010 project to your VS2012 solution by right-click on your solution in the Solution Explorer and Select Add --> Existing Project...

2. The project will appear in the solution and will have (Visual Studio 2010) appended to its name.

3. Right-click on the added project and select Properties.

4. In the Configuration Properties --> General pane, change the setting in Platform Toolset field to Visual Studio 2012 (v110)

5. Repeat for each configuration type, e.g. Release and Debug.
