How can I build an application with VS2005 to be comptible with Framework
1.1?
In VS2003 there was an option to compile an application to run on Framework
1.1 oder 1.0. Is there something similar in VS2005?

How can I build an application with VS2005 to be comptible with Framework
1.1?

The short answer is that you can't, VS 2005 is prett much hard wired
to v2.0 of the framework.

However, since MSBuild handles the building now, I guess in theory you
could edit the project file to invoke the v1.1 compiler instead. Of
course then you can't use any v2.0 language features.

No, executables compiled with the v2.0 compilers will only run on v2.0
of the framework.
