Normally you can run .NET 1.1 applications on .NET 2.0 with no
problem.  In the rare case that this doesn't work, you just have to
edit [appname].exe.config to point to the earlier .NET framework
version.  But you shouldn't have to do that.  If you're in doubt,
check MSDN for the list of obscure incompatibilities.

If you are not using any 2.10 features (e.g. printing, status icon,
etc), then you should be fine using 2.8 on Windows.
