.net Compatibility Issue

Hi,
I'm Boney from India. I would like to know if there is any compatibilty
issue when a .net windows application software is run on any of the Windows
OSs(including 95 & 98). And if there is any issues, what could it be and how
to rectify them. Also i would like to know if a VB application 'll ever have
such a problem.

Thanks,
Boney

Hi,

With .net applications, the only thing you need to worry about is if the
operating system supports the .net framework. your application sits on top of
the framework which in effects abstracts the under lying operating system
from your application. so if the operating system supports .net framework
then you app will work. however, i don't think .net works with win 95. for 98
i am not sure either. I would suggest you check the microsoft website for
..net to check the operating systems supported.

cheers

This is one of many articles found on MSDN. It's dated (2002), but indicates
that no version of .NET supports Win 95. It may be that later .NET versions
don't support Win 98 or ME, but I don't recall.
