Visual Studio 2005 and .NET 1.1 compliance

Hi!

I've now been using VS 2005 Beta 2 for my major C# project Virtual Photo Organizer for quite some time now and I am, apart from a few unexpected crashes in debug mode, pretty satisfied with it. There is however one major problem: I can't release any assemblies that require the .NET 2.0 BETA, thus I always have to compile my code with VS 2003 for the official releases. When doing that I also frequently have to remove some excess Windows-Forms code that isn't supported in .NET 1.1.
So I wonder if there is a way that I can get Visual Studio 2005 to write .NET 1.1 compliant Win-Forms code and compile that into .NET 1.1 assemblies.

Thanks for your help in advance!

    I do know about the GoLive license, the problem is that most of my program's users are likely to back off if they read the word BETA next to a download (referring to .NET 2.0 BETA).

    Thanks a lot for your hint! Thant toolkit should do the job.

    Does the golive license give you any relief http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/vs2005/golive/

    Hi,

    You can use the Visual Studio 2005 to compile for .NET v1.1 using the MSBuild toolkit. http://weblogs.asp.net/rmclaws/archive/2005/06/04/410360.aspx

    Based on the target I think it will retrict the assembly reference that can be added as well.
