Hi all,
Does anyone have experience of using VS .NET 2003 and .NET framework 2.0? If so,
could you tell me what's required to get them to work together? Am I going to
meet any particular problems?

TIA
 
You will meet just one particular problem: VS.Net 2003 was developed PRIOR
to .Net Framework 2.0, and therefore, cannot work with it.

Hi Fabio,

VS .NET 2003 and .NET Framework 2.0 don't work "together" because you are
not able to build a 2.0 application with VS.NET 2003.

They do work together in the sense that they can co-exist on the same
machine. However, you might find that 2.0's installation configures your
virtual directories to use 2.0 so you have to reset them to 1.1.

As usual, the warning remain about installing beta software on a product
machine.

Faibo:
You can install .net 2.0 sidebyside with 1.0 and 1.1, but you can't use
VS.Net 2003 to work with 2.0 technology. You need to use the new IDEs for
that which you can download from http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/vs2005/

A note, many people have had problems with running VS.net 2003 and 1.1 on
the same machine as Visual Web Developer (2.0 version) and 2.0. Do it in a
virtual machine or something until beta 2 that should be released in a
couple months.

Thanks to all for the prompt reply: I'll setup another devel machine and
configure it for .NET 2.0 while still in beta.
