Upgrading existing windows applicatioon to .net 3.5 framework

Hi,

We have a .net 2.0 windows application already deployed to client machines. Now, we have want to upgrade it to .Net 3.5 framework.But client machines may not have this new framework installed.

Can someone please let me know how to achieve this using VS.Net setup and deployment project?

Also, after deployment to client machine, when the user clicks on new msi package, then it should automatically update the existing package or install new one if not existing already.Help on this would be appreciated.

Thanks.

+1 A:

Go to properties->prerequisites and check .Net 3.5
