excel-2007

I've got an Excel add-in project that was created a couple years back in Visual Studio 2008. It's got some changes to be made so I've upgraded to Visual Studio 2010 (the only IDE I am able to use). Not sure if this is causing the problem but it's background information.

When I check out the code and compile it I get the error, "Error 1 Unable to find manifest signing certificate in the certificate store."

Can anyone tell me what this means and how to fix it?
