Build Error -- 'Version 2.0 is not a compatible version'

[Guest]

Migrating Compact Framework solution from Framework 1.1. In solution, have
re-referenced all compact framework dlls to now point to ver 2.0 dlls. When
building, get the following message: "Could not open <the version 2.0 dlls>
-- Version 2.0 is not a compatible version." My guess is that there is
attribute set somewhere under the hood with a hard-coded value of 1.x. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Here's the most reliable way to migrate solutions to NETCF:



1. Create new empty NETCF project (s).

2. Add all the files from your old project(s) to this brand new one.

3. Add required references.


Best regards,

FYI, there is no netcf 1.1 - only v1.0 and v2.0 BETA

For upgrading netcf projects see my thoughts here:
