Vista Movie Maker Saved Projects wont play on XP Movie Maker

I made many projects on Vista MM and no one with XP Movie maker can open
them. Is there something they can do to open and continue working on the
projects.

==================================
There is some useful info at the following site:

Movie Maker - Photo Story
http://www.papajohn.org/

Go to...Vista / Movie Maker / Intro...
at #2 it states:
"2 - Project files that have been used in Vista
cannot be used in MM2 in XP, even those that
started there. It's a one way street. "

Thanks John,
Incompatibility has a double edge, its also a good reason not to subscribe
to a new way.
I have already ghosted back to XP & put my Free Dell Vista Upgrade in the
draw. Most people I talk to are avoiding vista for some sort of compatibility
issue, I'll bet Vista sales will disapoint MS until they change the way in
which they make sure vista sells.
