I have a VS6 C++ project that I would like to convert to build in VS2010 and to target .NET Framework 2.0. The targeted framework box and selection are greyed out under property-> Common Properties-> Framework and References. There is no way to change the Framework from there.

I would like to note that I have no problem creating a NEW solution in VS2010 and target this new solution/project to whatever .NET Framework I want - 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 at the initial screen.

How to RE-target the .NET Framework after the solution/project is created? I Googled and searched in my locol MSDN library to no avial.

The instruction in Can I still target .NET Framework 2.0 in VisualStudio 2010? does not help. I cannot find project->compile->advanced anywhere.
I feel so inept.

  • The linked question is only relevant for managed C# projects, not C++ projects. Which does beg the question why you want to target .NET at all, you have no use for it. – Hans Passant Nov 09 '11 at 19:29
  • A VS6 C++ project will be compiled into native executables. You can't just retarget it to .Net and voila, you're using .Net. They're totally different. –  Nov 09 '11 at 20:37
