title: Opening a VS2008 project in Windows 8.1, that was a previously created
body: <p>I am facing a problem when opening af VS2008 solution. The project is a MS Word 2003 Add-in.
  The solution was created with VS2008 a while ago, by someone else. 
  I have Windows 7, VS2008 and MS Word 2003 installed on my computer and it is(was) working perfectly. </p>
  
  <p>Now I have upgraded my pc to windows 8.1 and installed VS2008 and MS Word 2003 again. 
  But when I open my solution in VS2008 (on Windows 8.1) it says the project was created with a previous version of Visual Studio eventhough it is still VS2008, and wants to convert it.
  I have tried to convert it, but when I debug it, it says "You cannot debug or run this project, because the required version of the Microsoft Office application is not installed".</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: SOLUTION</p>
  
  <p>It was because i had a newer version of Office installed, so Visual Studio automatically tried to upgrade the solution for that one. Two avoid that, I did this in visual studio:
  Tools->Options->Office tools->Project Upgrade-> uncheck the "Always upgrade to installed version of Office"</p>
  
  <p>The weird thing was, that Office 2013 was installed, but Visual Studio tried to uprade the solution for Office 2007.</p>
