I have an ASP.NET project developed on one machine in Vis. Studio
2003, and moved it to an older machine that has Vis. Studio 2002. This
older machine has been upgraded with the 1.1 framework, as well as all
the latest MS service XP and .NET service packs. I created a new
ASP.NET project on the older machine, and imported all the .ASPX, .VB
files - but when it compiles I get errors like:
'SelectedValue' is not a member of
'System.Web.UI.WebControls.DropDownList'.
'HasRows' is not a member of 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader'.
I assume those control properties are new in framework 1.1 ?
How can I get Vis Studio .NET 2002 to recognize these new 1.1
properties?
Is the project defaulting to framework 1.0 somehow ?
How can I get Vis Sutdio .NET 2002 to use framework 1.1 ?
Thanks in advance...
I'm not sure that VS.NET can be set to a use a version of the framework which didn't even exist when VS.NET 2002 was released but as I no longer have VS.NET 2002 on my machine I can't actually test this out
However, looking at it logically, my current installation of VS.NET 2003 can be set it to work with either version 1.1, version 1.0 or both versions of the framework but there is no option to make it work with any possible future versions of the framework. I would assume that if a newer framework version was released then a new version of VS.NET would also be released at the same time
Can you not just upgrade the older machine to VS.NET 2003

Visual Studio .NET 2002 is built on the .NET Framework 1.0, while Visual
Studio .NET 2003 is built on the .NET Framework 1.1. While the 1.0 and 1.1
Framework can exist side-by-side on a single machine, VS cannot be
reconfigured to use a different version of the Framework than the one it
natively supports.
I recommend that you upgrade your machine to VS 2003, to save you the
headache of attempting to back-port your project to an older platform.

the only thing i can say bad about it is,
pooh on ISPs that no longer support the 1.0 framework!
