List of VS2002 vs VS2003 issues?

S

Can anybody tell me if there is a list/discussion anywhere about
possible problems/issues/differences when upgrading a desktop app from
VS2002 to VS2003?

I have an app that uses datagrid/dataview with databound combobox
involving code that can either set the ComboBox value based on a value
in the datagrid, or set the value in the datagrid based on the
selected item in the ComboBox. It worked fine when built with VS2002
but doesn't with VS2003. (I am still trying to distill out exactly
what is happening so can't comment in more detail).

Hope this makes sense.

Herfried, those links are for .NET framework 1.0 vs 1.1. Sorry to be
dumb, but if I speculate correctly, this means that:

VS2002 uses .NET framework 1.0
VS2003 uses .NET framework 1.1

Is this correct?

Visual Studio.NET V2003 only runs with Framework V1.1, however, a VB.NET
V2003 runtime can be made to run on V1.1, V1.0 or both. It can be changed
with a setting within the IDE on a project by project basis. The default is
V1.1 only.

Herfried, is this for the Professional version of Visual Studio? I
just have the Standard version and my project/properties form doesn't
look at all like this.

I have the Configuration and Platform dropdown boxes at the top and
the Common Properties/General (etc). box at the left of the screen.
But the General item doesn't look at all the same. I can only set the
Assembly Name, Output Type, Startup Object and Root Namespace.

Thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it. :)

I ran across a problem where I have a combobox databound to a column
in a datagrid. When I update the database, the combobox value gets set
to the first visible row in the datagrid rather than the currently
selected row. It does not do this when the app is built using VS2002.

I am not sure, the screenshot is showing a C# project and my VS.NET 2003 is
installed on a computer located 150 km away from here.

OK, thank for the reply. I suppose if I were smarter, I could spend an
unknown amount of time researching the question on the internet. :)
