how to force a .net application to use .net 2.0 ?
this windows service is about 4 years old and im pretty sure is using .net
1.x runtime. Is there soem setting in the installer that says to use .net
2.0 instead of .net 1.0? this windows service is developed in visual studio
2002

You can specify that in the application configuration file, using the
<supportedRuntime> element.
