.NET Framework version

Question

I have an app that was created using .net Framework 3.5. However, I now need to change this to use the 2.0 Framework, as it needs to be distributed to a Windows 2000 machine. Will simply changing the Application Target Framework on the project properties be sufficient to do this?

Answer 1

Yes, if you don't use any .NET 3.5 specific stuff.

Then it won't even compile.

Answer 2

Change the target framework and do a recompile. You will probably also change your references to .Net 2.0 system assemblies. As long as you don't use any new features this should be sufficient.
