VS.net update issue

I'm currently developing software using Visual Basic .net.  I maintain copies on multiple computers, some of which are not connected to the network to protect sensitive information.
 
After updating my operating system on my networked machine, I find that I have MS Development Environment 2003 Version 7.1.3088 whereas on my unnetworked machines, I'm using Version 7.0.9466.  When I attempt to edit programs written in the newer environment on the stand alone machine, I get an error (it says the solution was written on a newer version of VB and can't be opened).   I've attemped to download files to update my other copy with no success.
 
What file do I need to patch the older computer so I can debug the newer software
 
Thanks,
-Dave

    It sounds like your networked machines are using Visual Studio 2003 (7.1) and the .NET Framework 1.1.  You can go to Add/Remove Programs to see what version of the framework is installed (unless you're using Windows 2003 since the 1.1 framework comes with that box).

    On your machines that are stand alone, it looks like you have VS 2002 (7.0) and the 1.0 framework.

    If you're developing against the 1.1 framework, you will also need the 1.1 framework on the box you deploy your applications to.
