confusion regarding 'Installing Executables to to Global Assembly Cache'

Hi all,

I read some where that in 2003 you could not able to install
application assemblies in GAC.In Visual Studio 2005 you can even add
application assemblies to the GAC .You can install Exe to GAC.

But i tried with creating small console application and set strong
name to it. When i install it to gac its getting installed in gac.
Then why is it said that we can't do this?

Means am i doing some thing wrong in 2003. Or i misinterpreted the
meaning of this statment.

Please correct me if i am worng.

thanks in advance.
