How to: Change the Target .NET Framework

Applies to

The information in this topic applies only to the specified Visual Studio Tools for Office projects and versions of Microsoft Office.

Project type

  • Document-level projects

  • Application-level projects

Microsoft Office version

  • Microsoft Office 2003

  • 2007 Microsoft Office system

For more information, see Features Available by Application and Project Type.

For Visual Studio Tools for Office, the default version of the Microsoft .NET Framework is version 3.5. However, you can set Microsoft Office 2003 solutions to use version 2.0, 3.0, or 3.5. Office solutions created for the 2007 Microsoft Office system must be developed for .NET Framework 3.5. 

Starting in Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1 (SP1), you can develop 2007 Microsoft Office solutions with .NET Framework version 3.5 or .NET Framework Client Profile. The .NET Framework Client Profile is a subset of the full .NET Framework 3.5 that has a size of 25-30 MB. For more information about the .NET Framework Client Profile, see .NET Framework Client Profile.

You can change the target .NET Framework without creating a new project. Visual Basic projects and C# projects have different procedures for changing the target .NET Framework.
