visual studio .net general: Is it possible to use VS 2005 and write to the .NET 1.1 framework in C# /
VB.NET. I'd like to work on my current projects with the 2005 IDE but all the
clients have 1.1 only.

Not really. VS 2005 only works with .NET 2.0. Theoretically, if you are
really careful and only use 1.1 features, you might be able to move files
back to VS 2003 and rebuild the application. I did build my ASP.NET 1.1 web
site using VS 2005, for example. However, you won't be able to open VS 2005
project in VS 2003. Forward compatibility is not something that is
supported.

It is completely possible. i developed a KB Support system and
backported the whole thing back to 2k3 in about 3-4 hours. IF you use
master pages you just end up doing alot of copying and pasting. And as
long as you don't use generics then you should be good to go provided
you took the appropriate steps during the original development process.
