Sorry if my question is quite naive, nevertheless :

Will components written on C# with VS 2003 be applicable on legacy VS 2001.
If no, please direct me to a safe way to provide backward compatibility ...
 
Hi Yuri,

I assume your question is on backword compatibility for
building your projects between VS.NET 2002 and 2003.
Is that correct ?

If so, VS.NET 2002 projects can be opened in in VS.NET 2003
(foward compatible) and the projects will
be automatically upgraded and converted by VS.NET 2003.

AFAIK, the reverse is not true however. In that, if you have a
VS.NET 2003 project, VS.NET 2002 will not be able to open it.
But you will be able to workaround it by moving the files
that contain your .NET 1.1 code into a new VS.NET 2002 project -
Well of course, this would only work (compile) if you are only using
..NET 1.1 classes or controls that are backward compatible with .NET 1.0
