Deploying programs with net framework 2 onto framework 1

[Jarry]

How do you get a program built with, say, Visual Basic 2005 (with .net
framework 2.0) to deploy onto a computer with only framewok 1 or so, if
you don't have the administrative rights? It's kind of urgent, but it
must be simple - I only want to run a program I created at home on
university computers ...

Thanks in advance,
Jarry

Hello Jarry,

Ask the Uni sysop to install .net fx 2.

You can't.

Framework 1.1 /cannot/ load assemblies built under Framework 2.0.

Granted I am sure you don't want to buy it, but the "can" does exist.

funny this should come up. just today I was listening to a .NetRocks podcast
interview with a person that has a "compiler" that wraps up the framework
and your app into a single DLL. Then one executable to be deployed. Pretty
cool, but it does give up the security that is built into the framework.

See the ".Net Native Compiler" product.
