Hi,

is there something like a StackPanel from WPF for the normal Windows
Forms Library?
I have to update a .Net 2.0 Application with a better User Interface,
but .Net3.5 is not possible,
because the application has to run on Windows 2000.

Thanks, for your help,

Andre

FlowLayoutPanel is probably the closest (just don't forget to set
AutoSize to true, and AutoSizeMode to GrowAndShrink), though single-
column/row TableLayoutPanel can also be used. All in all, though,
WinForms layouts are a pain to work with (particularly from within the
visual editor).

I would love to use Xaml and WPF, but as there is this requirement
for
Win2000 i have no choice.

Are you sure 3.5 isn't supported on Windows 2000? I haven't seen the system
requirements for it, but I'm relatively certain that Silverlight 2.0 is
going to be Win2K compatible, so I'd be surprised if 3.5 isn't.
 
Hi,

..NET 3.0 and .NET 3.5 are definitely not supported on W2k.

Kind regards,

Silverlight is not .NET 3.5, it has its own version of the runtime.
3.5 requires XP as a minimum. One can install 2.0 SP1 or SP2 (which
are parts of 3.5 and 3.5 SP1, respectively) on Win2K, but they don't
include any of the 3.x bits.
