    Windows XP SP1: .NET Framework Initialization Error

    Hi !

    I try to make pretty straight forward operation, but it fails...
    I have .NET Framework 1.1 Configuration (version 1.1.4322.573)
    with VS 2003, where I developed a sample application. Now I coppied it
    to Windows XP SP1 machine . After launching my application I am
    getting annoying :
    ..NET Framework Initialization Error - failed to load mscorwks.dll
    couldn't be loaded.

    Does the deployemnet .NET applications is not trasperant for different
    ..NET Framework vesrions ?

    Thanks for your help.

    Jean

      The runtime isn't 'forward compatible'... meaning you can't write an app
      using v1.1 and then have it run on v1.0 (though the reverse is true).

          Tim,
          Yes you can! You can go either direction!

          Within VS.NET 2003 (.NET 1.1) open the Project Property Pages, select
          'Common Properties - Build', under Supported Runtimes, click the Change
          button. Select 'Microsoft >NET Framework v1.0 (advanced)'.

          Be certain to read the warning. The executable is still compiled for 1.1,
          however it will execute under 1.0. Just remember that 1.1 has features that
          are not available in 1.0, for example the
          System.Windows. Forms.Applicati on.EnableVisual Styles method.

          Changing the above option adds configuration/startup/supportedRuntim e
          settings to you added your app.config file, enabling the use of the 1.0
          runtime. It also adds configuration/runtime/assemblyBinding to cause the 1.0
          runtime assemblies to be used.

          Hope this helps
          Jay

              Re: Windows XP SP1: .NET Framework Initialization Error

              Jean,
              Do you have either .NET Framework loaded on the Windows XP machine?

              Within VS.NET 2003 (.NET 1.1) open the Project Property Pages, select
              'Common Properties - Build', under Supported Runtimes, click the Change
              button. Select 'Microsoft >NET Framework v1.0 (advanced)'.

              Be certain to read the warning. The executable is still compiled for 1.1,
              however it will execute under 1.0. Just remember that 1.1 has features that
              are not available in 1.0, for example the
              System.Windows. Forms.Applicati on.EnableVisual Styles method.

              The above settings changes your app.config, remember to include the new
              app.config (as myproject.exe.c onfig) when you copy the executable to the
              Windows XP machine.

              Hope this helps
              Jay
