I have not yet used VS 2008 but I understand I can designate a project to run against the .NET framework 2.0 so I can still develop programs that will run on Windows 2000. If I were to develop such a project, would I generate code for .NET 2.0 or .NET 3.0?

Thanks,

James

.NET 2.0 I suppose.

OK, I didn't know if the only difference was in the project file generated or if there were any non backward compatible code differences. I'll give it a go and let you know what happens!

Edit It doesn't seem to make too much difference on the face of it. I've not built it and tried it on a windows 2000 machine or anything yet though...

FYI: .net 3.0 is just .net 2.0 + wpf/wf/wcf/cardspace. IOW the difference consist in a bunch of new assemblies.
