Anatomy of Project and Solution files in VS.Net

Visual Studio creates two separate files when you create a new Solution:
.suo (solution user options) - stores user settings such as the location of your breakpoints.
.sln file - stores information about the projects that make up this solution, source control settings, and other global settings that apply to all of the projects in the solution.

Each Project creates a number of files to store information about itself. This includes a project file (.csproj or .vbproj) and a user settings file ([projectextension].user/ vbproj.user ).

Project files in Visual Studio 2005 are completely different than the project files in Visual Studio .NET 2002 and 2003.

The project files in Visual Studio 2005 are MSBuild XML files.

MSBuild is the new build tool used in Visual Studio 2005 and is similar to NAnt in that is uses XML files to describe how the project should be built.
