[mabrahao]

hi guys, i have a projetec on vb.net, this project is seted to use .net framework 3.5, but i have to install this application in a windows 2000, this windows cant install .net framework 3.5, so i have to change my project, and that is the problem, a have no ideia, how it is done? thank you very much

This should have been thought before even starting with the development. What kind of application is it? Is it using anything new that was introduced in .Net 3.5? If not, just set the target framework to 2.0 and see if application works fine.

i just used webbrowser, System.Data.OleDb and Npgsql... where can i change this target? thanks

look for "project properties", there are a couple of ways to get there. :)

Well, i tried, but no sucess, it is asking for .net framework 3.5 to be installed

1. when you change the target setting, you have to rebuild. 2. when you also create an installer, you'd have to modify that one too. Don't ask for details, I don't have them. :)

As Luc told, change the target framework from the project properties. MSDN would help on how to do that. Also, you can very well use new "compiler features" available with .Net 3.5. Your code will still run fine on a computer with .Net framework 2.0.
