Re: is there a way to run a program independent of the .NET version?

AHA! That is it! :> I looked in the RSSBandit.exe.config file and there is
a section like this.

<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v1.1.4322"/>
<supportedRuntime version="v1.0.3705"/>
<requiredRuntime version="v1.0.3705"/>
</startup>

Therefore, I believe this is what is limiting me to the 1.1 framework. Does
that make sense to you .NET gurus? I didn't find anything like that in the
RSSBandid.exe.manifest which looks like this.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
<description>RSS Bandit</description>
<dependency>
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity
type="win32"
name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"
version="6.0.0.0"
processorArchitecture="X86"
publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df"
language="*"
/>
</dependentAssembly>
</dependency>
</assembly>
