Sumesh:

For each job you have, you will get a separate W-2.

If you converted from a F-1 to a H-1B visa on 2 Sep 05, You will probably file a Form 1040NR (file as a non-resident alien) for 2005, though you have the option of filing either dual status or as a resident alien.

There are multiple other posts addressing how to file on F-1 and H-1B visa on this site.
