Remarks

When the project is offline, no attempt is made to write to or access the project's files on the server.

To change the URL of the offline project files, use the OfflineURL property of the Project.Properties collection.

This property may be changed for Web projects only. While this is a read-write property, an error is generated if you attempt to set this property for a local project.
