I've just installed VS 2008 and made first tests.

I had the following strange things happen:

- When I create a Windows Forms Application, VS 2008 put into references
assemblies from Framework 2.0 and not 3.5.

- In Toolbox I find 2.0 controls and not 3.5 controls.

- I do not find some of 1.1 Form controls (such as DataGrid or ContextMenu).
They are mentioned into 3.5 documentations, but I don't find a way to add to
toolbox. If I try to Choose Item to add it, I see DataGrid 3.5 (from Compact
Framework and not GAC!) already checked, but it is not displayed in any
tabs.

Anybody have experimented the same problems?..

Hi Francesco,

Your 1st issue may be related to a setting which framework you want to use
for a project. You can find that setting "Target Framework" in Project
Properties.

I'm also having your 2nd issue and don't have any clue how to fix it yet.
