如何将VC ++ 2010项目降级到VC ++ 2008？

Question

This is a usual MFC project developed in VC++ 2010 but since my client does not have VC++ 2010, I need to downgrade to VC++ 2008. When I tried, I got "Cannot load the project due to a corrupt project file."

Is there any way to downgrade the project file?

UPDATE: As people suggested, I created new project in VC 2008 and started from there. It took an hour to make it runnable so I can't complain. But of course, it was not copy-and-paste easy. I had to copy all include directories and libraries correctly. And had to delete unnecessary code parts that do not exist in 2008. One thing I can't still figure out is an error in rc file

RC2176 : old DIB in res\MyApp.ico; pass it through SDKPAINT 

It apparently can't recognize the icon format for some reason. For now, I commented out that icon part.

The only way I know of is to create a new VC++ 2008 project and copy all of your VC++ 2010 files into it. If you drag/drop from Windows Explorer into the Solution Explorer in VS, it will add them to your project and copy them to your project folder.
