Converting to VS 2003

I'd like to migrate to VS2003, but what is stopping me is the ability to
target apps for 1.0 Framework. Finding a way to configure both the compiler
and steup/deploy to only support Framework 1.0 without an app config
solution is escaping me.

Questions:

1. Is there a way to do this?
2. If not, what considerations should be given to just biting the bullet and
forcing the upgrade to 1.1?

TIA

Fritz,
Visual Studio .NET 2002 creates code for the 1.0 framework.
Visual Studio .NET 2003 creates code for the 1.1 framework.

1. Is there a way to do this?

You can configure your 1.1 .NET applications to run on 1.0 by doing
the following:

For ASP.NET applications, see:
http://www.asp.net/faq/SideBySide.aspx

For Windows applications, see:
http://www.gotdotnet.com/team/changeinfo/default.aspx
- Configuration File Tags

2. If not, what considerations should be given to just biting the bullet and

I would upgrade. There are a lot of performance and stability enhancement in 1.1.
