.NET Framework v2.0

Dear developers.

I had (until today) installed on my Computer version 1.1 of the framework,
and had created a few vb.net applications in vs.net 2003 which, for me, was
quite an achievement(!)

To take advantage of the new XMLSchemaSet, Today I uninstalled v1.1 of the
framework, rebooted, then downloaded and installed version 2.0, but all is
not well.

Each time I try to open a project within vs.net 2003, it will crash ("An
exception 'unhandled Win32 exception' has occured in devenv.exe"). I have
tried several projects, without success.

Am I missing something here (most probable cause) or is there perhaps a
wider issue, such as a bug?

Any advice would be gratefully received.

That was a mistake. You don't have to uninstall v1.1 before installing
v2.0, they can both be installed side-by-side. And uninstalling v1.1
will break VS 2003, it will not work with v2.0.

AFAIK .NET 2.0 requires vs.net 2005. It doesn't work with Visual Studio 2003.

Never mind chaps - I worked on a witty remark from a colleague, something to
do with backwards compatability and - boom .. a quick google search found
that vs.net 2003 and 2.0 don't work together.

Actually, it is the other way around, you can still compile 2.0 code using
csc.exe, no need for vs.net.
 
Visual Studio .NET 2003 does not support editing 2.0 projects. It is part of
the game. :-)

You can leave 1.1 on your machine and install 2.0. But, you cannot edit 2.0
with 2003.

Are you saying that you can use the csc.exe from 1.1 to compile 2.0? Or,
simply that you do not have to have Visual Studio to compile.

I am in agreement with the second statement, but I am leaning away from the
first.

You're quite correct. You can use the csc.exe that ships with the .NET 2.0
SDK to compile 2.0, and therefore don't require VS.NET 2005. csc.exe 1.1
will not be able to compile 2.0 code.
