Not able to open database project of (Version 2.0.50727.145) into CTP 7

We have one database project created in Microsoft Visual Studio Team Edition for Database Professionals Version 2.0.50727.145, now we are trying to open same project in CTP 7 and that gives following error

"---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
This project was created with an older community technical preview of Visual Studio Team Edition for Database Professionals. You can only open database projects that were created with CTP6 or newer versions.
---------------------------
OK Cancel
---------------------------
"

Kindly suggest for some solution.

Appreciate your help.

    Either import the deployed database schema (right click on project -> import schema) into a new project or add the individual *.sql files of the old project into the appropriate folders of a new project. The change was to the project file format, not necessarily the individual files.

    Correct, projects are not compatible necessarily between CTPs. You will need to do as Alle says and re-import or copy the .sql files to get to the new CTP version of the project.
