Smartphone project in VS.net 2005 - CF issue

[Guest]

Here's what I'm doing:

1) Start VS.net 2005 (release)
2) File > New > Project
3) Project Types - select Visual C#\Smart Device\Smartphone 2003
4) Templates - Device Application (1.0)
5) Click OK

The system then comes back wth the error :

'This project requires .NET Compact Framework v1.0, which is not installed
on this machine.'

A quick look in installed programs reveals I do in fact have Microsoft .NET
Compact Framework 1.0 SP3 installed.

Thanks for reading

In order to compile .NETCF v1.0 projects you need to have the .NET v1.1
runtimes on your machine, VS2005 doesn't install them so if you don't have
them on your machine already e.g. an installation of VS2003 or installed
through Windows Update, then you'll need to install the package

Thanks for the post.

I already have 1.1 from the install of VS2003. (In fact I've got 1.0, 1.0CF,
1.1, 2.0 & 2.0CF) I'm beginning to think I'm going to need to repave the
thing to get this up and running ... there is no reason why this should not
be working.

One thing is I did have VS2005 Beta 2 installed at one point ...
