I recently installed VS2008 and opened a VS2005 project(C++). Then after the conversion to VS2008, i tried building the project. But the project is getting skipped. I tried Clean as well as Rebuild, and it is getting skipped for those as well.
How can i solve this problem and build the project in VS 2008?
Forgot to mention, Also in Build->Configuration Manager, Build option is ticked.

Thanks for your responses.
Though build check box is selected in Build->Configuration Manager, i was not able to build and the project got skipped when i tried to Build, Rebuild or Clean the solution.
As i was using Win2k8 R2 machine(64bit) i had to install VS 64bit compiler which wont be installed by default. So i had to install the feature again using Add/Remove features in VS2008 and the problem got solved.
I found this as I was able to build it for 32 bit but not for 64 bit.
