Hi,

can I tell the compiler in vs2003 to use latest .NET framework? I have
the entry level vs 2003 with C++ only and .net 1.1.4322.573, no C#.

I can use app.exe.config files but to my knowledge that only tells the
executable which .NET to use and not the compiler.

Thanks!

vs2003 can only use Framework 1.1.
vs2005 will only use Framework 2.0.

As you way, there are ways and means to "persuade" a compiled
*application* to run against a different Framework, but /not/
'Studio itself.

Regards,
