VS.NET versioning issues

[Philip Townsend]

I am experiencing some difficulties having upgraded to VS 2003. Here is
my problem: when compiling a web project from the new version, the
application no longer works and throws various exceptions (the app runs
on .NET 1.0). However, this can be corrected by compiling the same
project from another machine with the orginial version of VS.NET. I am
sure that I am missing a setting somewhere, or something like that. Does
anybody have a solution to this?

You can run version 1.0 and version 1.1 apps side-by-side on the same web
server. Basically, therefore, you have 2 choices:

1. Leave the 1.0 app alone, and run it under version 1.0
2. Upgrade the 1.0 app to 1.1 (fixing the errors that you found), and run it
under version 1.1

It sounds like you need Denis Bauer's free ASP.NET Version Switcher

"The ASP.NET Version Switcher is a little utility that can be used to
quickly switch the .NET Framework version that the ASPX pages are compiled
against. This is helpful for developers who often have to test their web
applications for compatibility with different version of the .NET Framework"
