For supporting development of old VB.Net code I needed to install VS
2003 on a new coputer, but the information I see in the "About" window
in the oldComputer vs. newComputer is not the same. and also some of the
files in the following folders are different
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\


oldComputer:
============
Installed Frameworks:
v1.0.3705
v1.1.4322
v2.0.50727

VS About:
Microsoft development 2003 version 7.1.3088
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 version 1.1.4322 SP1
. . .
Microsoft Visual Basic .NET 69462-270-0000007-18557 <-- ???


newComputer:
============
Installed Frameworks:
v1.1.4322

VS About:
Microsoft development 2003 version 7.1.3088
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 version 1.1.4322 SP1
. . .
Microsoft Visual Basic .NET 69462-270-0000007-18415 <-- ???


Do you know what cause the differences 18415 vs. 18557?
I want my new compiled code to be the same, I only care for .Net 1.1
changes (I dont care for .Net 2 or .Net 1.0)

Thanks

Different OS?

Andrew
 
old computer - XP Home Edition SP3
new computer - XP Proffesional SP3

both are XP sp3, so I donot think that the specific edition cause the
change, is it?

Is there an update that I need to install to convert
VB .NET 69462-270-0000007-18415
to
VB .NET 69462-270-0000007-18557
?

I googled for this version numbers, but did not find anything.

That looks like a serial number of some kind. In my copy of 2008, the
number is the same for all products under Visual Studio (VB, C#, etc...). Is
it possible you installed from two different source media?

Mike
 
on my computers also the number is the same for all products under
Visual Studio (VB, C#, etc...)

I did the installation on the old computer 4 years ago . . .
maybe I installed a demo version and then activated it, so it has
another serial number.

How can I detect what system-dll files my exe uses, so that I am
generating the same output files?

Thanks,

Atara.
