Hello everyone!
I just finished writing a small app in VB 2005. I paid very close attention
to using only Framework 1.1 commands since my client has not yet installed
the Framework 2.0 across their enterprise.
When I tested my app on another system, my app tells me that I must install
the 2.0 Framework for it to work even though 1.1 is installed. I thought .NET
projects were backward compatible as long as the functions are compatible.
What should I do to distribute my app? Any help would be gretaly appreciated.

afaik, Framework 2.0 is required for any VS2005 project, regardless.

I strongly recommend to install .NET Framework 2.0. Almost any VB project
adds .NET 2.0-dependent stuff behind the scenes. If you want to target .NET
1.1, use VS.NET 2003 for development.

Sean, When I tested my app on another system, my app tells me that I must install the 2.0 Framework for it to work even though 1.1 is installed. I thought .NET projects were backward compatible as long as the functions are compatible.
No forwards compatible. (should be because it is at the moment not true with
1.x to 2.0, I hope the new SP will fix that).
A program language can be backwards compatible.

If you compile your application in 2005 the minimum supported version of the Framework is 2.0.

My thanks to all who answered. I will have to copy/paste my 2005 code into a
2003 project. It does suck to have to do this but waddya gonna do? This would
be a great enhancement to all Visual languages (VB, C# and C++) to have an
option to be backward compatible at compile time. IMHO.

I agree with you that it would be great if new versions of VS could still be
compile for older versions of the .NET Framework.

Cor, I'm a little confused by your answer. Suppose I have a machine that
only has .Net 2.0 installed. I have another machine that I developed my
application using VB.Net 2003 and .Net 1.1 installed. Can I take my
application I developed with VB.Net 2003 and .Net 1.1 and run it on the
machine that only has .Net 2.o installed?

It is possible to run an app developed with framework 1.1 on a machine that
only has 2.0 on it. BUT, there are no guarantees that everything will work
correctly. That is why it is recommended that you install the framework that
the app was developed on , on the target machine. That way, there is less
likely to be problems. And all of the frameworks ( 1.0,1.1, & 2.0) are
supposed to be able to con-exist without any interference or problems
between them. Before, a major hard drive failure, I had all three
development enviroments and frameworks installled, along with Visual Studio
6.0 , and never had any problems.
( YMMV)

Dennis,
This is as it AFAIK should have been, however in version Net 2.0 are some
classes working as they probably should (only fair to read in the
documentation) have been. By instance the dataview is now on more places in
2.0 really dynamic.
I don't know how Microsoft will solve this.
I can not imaging a future with on one computer needed
Net 1.0 (SP1, SP2), Net 1.x (SP1), Net 2.0 (Sp1, SP2, SP3, SP4), Net 2.1,
Net 3,0
That is worse than the Dll hell.
