I am tasked with converting Forums 3.20.09 to ASP.NET 2.0. Has any one done this or could describe the steps to do this.

I did try to compile the application converting the classes in code-behind to partial classes.  This did not work. Everything compiled as a project but website did not. Interestingly, the error was that a matching class could not be found in the assembly.  Instead of looking for type DotNetNuke.Modules.Forums.Forum_Administration, the error states could not load type desktopmodules_forum_forum_administration. 

I understand that everything is a class in asp.net 2.0, but I am embarrassed to say I was surprised that compiling the code behind into a private assembly did not solve the issue.  I have visual studio with sp1 and web application projects are included.  When I opened the 7.1 solution, the conversion process proceeded without errors.  I assumed the converted project would behave like a web application project.

If I do not change anything there seems to be no problem, but that really isn't a 2.0 conversion.  How might I proceed to do this?

Thank you
