Will 3.5 replace?

[David C]

We are using .Net 2.0 for all our asp.net applications. I would like to
start building new ones in 3.5 but I wondered if I could remove 2.0 once 3.5
is installed? Thanks.

Also, would I have to change my App Pools on IIS?

3.5 justs adds features to 2.0 - - you can use both in the same environment.
VS.Net 2008 will let you set the version of your application

No, you can't remove it. The 3.0 and 3.5 Frameworks only add features and
are not full-blown frameworks individual. The 2.0 framework was a full set,
as was 1.x, but after that it's incremental. Removing the 2.0 framework
would therefore break the 3.0 and 3.5 frameworks.

Hope this helps,

No. 3.5 is an add on to 2.0.

It will make them 3.5.

No, you won't be able to because 3.5 targets the 2.0 CLR.
If you remove 2.0, 3.5 will stop working.
