Converting RS 2000 Project to RS 2005

I finally got a virtual machine setup with Server 2003, SQL 2005 Feb 2005
CTP, and VS 2005 Feb 2005 CTP. Backed up the database that I used in VS 2003
for my RS 2000 project and restored it in SQL 2005 (no issues with that).
Then I opened up the RS 2000 project in VS 2005 and it brought up a wizard to
convert the solution into VS 2005 format. Once that was complete the layout
view for the report looked fine and all of the datasets were pulling back the
proper data.
Whenever I try to preview or build the solution the following error is
displayed:
Cannot call Invoke or BeginInvoke on a control until the window handle has
been created.
Not sure what this means or what I need to do to fix it. I have verified
that RS 2005 is up and running correctly by running some of the
AdventureWorks samples in the Report Manager.
Hopefully this is not a sign on how difficult it will be to move RS 2000
projects over to RS 2005.I wouldn't worry. You still have an early beta.

Specific Reporting Services 2005 questions are probably best asked on
the microsoft.private.sqlserver2005.reportingsvcs newsgroup, meantime.
Despite the group's name, it's open to the public.

Prove the existence of this so-called private newsgroup "open to the public"
that you have a propensity for mentioning by providing an actually link to it.
