Everything is in the project files, csproj for C# or vbproj for VB. You can create a new empty solution then add those project files to it.

To find out the version, open the project file with a text editor. At the top you should see "Project ToolsVersion="

The .suo files probably won't help much. They are settings files for the developer (window positions, break point locations, etc). In fact, they shouldn't be checked in because they are different for every developer.
