Issue using control created in VS.net 2003 in VS.net 2002
I have a friend that has an issue using my asp.net C# custom control in Visual Studio.net 2002 that I have compiled under Visual Studio.net 2003. I never did test it with that version, but I was under the impression that it should still work as long as you don't use any features specific to the 1.1 framework (which I really don't think I did). My guess now is that this is correct, but only when using 2002 controls in 2003. I have searched the web, these forums, and MSDN for the last 30 minutes with no real answer. The guy that runs MetaBuilders (http://www.metabuilders.com/Faq.aspx) tells people to recompile his controls with vs.net 2002. I'm hoping there is a better answer because I'd hate to maintain separate builds of my control. Can someone else shed some light on this topic? ...

Application created in new version of .NET (3.0 or 3.5) can use the library created in older version of .NET(i.e.-1.0 or 2.0)?
Hi All, I am using Visual Studio .NET compiler for compiling my application . We have plugins (as library) which the user can write by their own in .NET . We are building our code in Visual Studio 2005 but we have already some plug-ins which are written in previous versions of Visual Studio (i.e. 2002 and 2003). Is these plug-ins will work with the new build of the application or I need to build these plug-ins as well in Visual Studio .NET 2005. These plugins are created as library. Is their any differences between .NET 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 because of which the old libraries (created in old .NET version, i.e 1.0 and 2.0) will not work with the application created in new verion(3.0 or 3.5)  Any help will be highly appreciated.  Thanks.darshi No prob it will work. Framework 3 will have all the namespaces of the version 1 and 2....
