can we use VS.NET 2003 with framework 2.0?

[John]

I have VS.NET 2003, and it uses .NET framework 1.1. Can we install the
latest .NET framework 2.0, so that VS.NET 2003 can use framework 2.0,
instead of 1.1? Well maybe VS.NET 2003 doesn't support new features in
..NET framework 2.0 but not in 1.1.

Also, is should be ok to run .NET 1.1 application on .NET 2.0
framework, but not ok to run .NET 2.0 application on .NET 1.1
framework, correct?

please advise. thanks!!

No, you cannot use VS 2003 with .NET Framework v2.0. You can, however,
download free Express tools that will work with v2.0:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/

Haven't attempted to run either V.1. on V2.0 or vice versa, as all our
machines have both Frameworks installed. I'm sure others will chime in.

In most cases, you can run .NET 1.1 app against .NET 2 fcl.
The reverse (running .NET 2 against .NET 1.1) is not supported.

Do you know if you can run VS2003 against a SQL2005 database using Net 1.1?

Hi Jon,

I have attempted to use VS2003 with SQL2005 and can successfully create
read-only data sets, but it will not allow me to create INSERT, UPDATE,
DELETE statements.

Is there something very different about the process now?

cheers,
Mark Chimes

I don't know whether anything works differently in the designer - but
it should be fine at execution time. Are you able to design against a
SQL Server 2000 instance?

Jon,

Yes, designing against both MSDE and SQL2000 databases works perfectly.
It is only against SQL2005 Express (I do not yet have full SQL2005) that I
am having trouble.

cheers,
Mark
