dotNet Framework 2.0 and Visual Studio 2003 pro

[lcky]

Hi

I am having a Visual Studio 2003 professional as a developing IDE. I would like to use dotNet Framework 2.0.
I am not sure to use it.
Will it be ok to use framework 2.0 with Visual Studio 2003.

Please could you help.

many thank

No, you'll have to use VS2005 if you want to use version 2.0 of the framework...

That's not entirely correct.

You can download the .net 2.0 Framework SDK from Microsoft, but you won't be able to use VS.NET 2003 with it -- you'll have to find your own editor, and call the command-line compiler to build your code.

It's a lot of work, and is how all .net programs used to be built about 3 years ago. But it *is* possible.

Let's say 5 years ago. We're not getting any younger you know.


And the OP did ask

So the answer still is no.

In addition to the question, Which would be better to purchase, VS.NET or VS 2005? If I create apps in VS2005 will they run on Windows 2000? Do I need to upgrade the .NET framework on all the pcs?

 

[chrissie1]

VS.NET or VS 2005

I know of only VB.NET 2005 Standard and Visual Studio 2005 Professional (and a few other more expensive versions.) but I would go for the second.

If I create apps in VS2005 will they run on Windows 2000

they should.

Do I need to upgrade the .NET framework on all the pcs

Yep.
