It works for both desktop and web apps.
The thing is that it is a "compiler" switch.
It tells VS.NET which compiler version to use.
Which *runtime* version is used is a different thing,
which in 1.1 and 2.0 web apps can be changed via
the ASP.NET tab in the MMC ( which doesn't work
since Beta 1 ) or using Denis Bauer's ASP.NET
version switcher, like you correctly indicate.

I think that works only for desktop applications. I could be wrong. But
the ASPNET version switcher will force it to work on a specified version of
the .net framework

news:O2**************@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... But I remember that under project properties, there is an
option(something
like supported runtime) specifying the version of .NET framwork you plan
to
run on, isn't it?

news:Oi****************@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl ¤¤¼¶¼g... By the time web.config is loaded, the .NET Framework
version has already been specified.
To do what you want to do, just use Denis Bauer's
free ASP.NET Version Switcher to configure the
applications you want targeted under version 1.1.
