I have a project with Crystal Reports files that doesn't seem to build correctly if I upgrade it to VS 2005 and .NET 2.0. I think the reason is that the new version of Crystal Reports is incompatible with the older report format. Since I am now running Vista, and .NET 2003 doesn't work correctly on Vista, I want to be able to build using MSBuild to target the .NET 1.1 framework. Is this possible?

+1  A: 

.NET 1.1 doesn't use MSBuild, but what you CAN do is convert the project to VS 2005, and use something called MSBee to back-target your project to the 1.1 runtime. I've never tried it, but that's probably your best bet.
