I have several wdprojects (web deployment 2008) in vs2008 solutions. When I installed vs2010 RC none of my wdprojects will open.

What can I do to make it work?

Visual Studio 2010 Web Deployment Projects RTW is available here: Visual Studio 2010 Web Deployment Projects RTW

Update:

As per this SO question, Visual Studio 2012 does not have Web Deployment Projects.

But it's ok: Visual Studio 2012 Web Deployment Projects are Dead – Long Live Publishing Profiles

    Update: 10.0.30319.5 "RTW" (whatever that is) is available here, you I assume you shouldn't use the Beta anymore: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=89F2C4F5-5D3A-49B6-BCAD-F776C6EDFA63&displaylang=en – gregmac Jul 21 '10 at 17:53

According to this post on the ASP.NET forum they will actually provide support for it some time after the release of Visual Studio 2010. But I can confirm that it is not supported out of the box in the Visual Studio 2010 RTM.

Note there could also be some conflicts/warnings or errors when migrating. Something like: "Unrecognized attribute 'targetFramework'. Note that attribute names are case-sensitive"

Here is an article which explains how to fix that: http://extremedev.blogspot.com/2011/10/migrating-wdproj-from-vs-2008-to-vs.html

VS 2010 convertor will convert the project as required when you try opening it in VS2010.
