using application blocks

[Philip Townsend]

Can anybody give me some advice/feedback on using application blocks?
What are the prerequisites? Do I need to install componenets, or, do I
need to upgrade to the latest version of the .net framework? Thanks...

Hi Philip,

You are referring to the MS application blocks such as Updater, Data
Access, Exception Management, etc, yes? I believe they will work for any
released version of the runtime, but they include the source code, so it
would be trivial to recompile them for a particular version of the runtime
if I am wrong. There are no other dependencies other than the runtime. Btw,
"microsoft.public.dotnet.distributed_apps" seems to be the preferred
newsgroup for application block questions.
