Hello!

I'm working with a very old project which was built with Visual Studio 2008 toolset.

I wanted to upgrade my project for Visual Studio 2017. So I have made all the necessary modifications to build all the sub projects separately. And it worked. But when I tried to build the whole project, while linking, it shows that, some libraries are compiled with older toolset. And I don't have the source code of that library. So I have abandoned the hope for upgrading my code for VS2017. (Can you help me here?)

I have successfully built the project using VS2008 on my PC. Now I want to build this project from VS2017 using VS2008 toolset. Because VS2017 offers much cooler features. I have gone through this (C++ Team Blog | Stuck on an older toolset version? Move to Visual Studio 2017 without upgrading your toolset) guide. But couldn't find any options to select Platform Toolset: VS2008 (v90)


How to enable this option on my VS2017?

Thanks.
