Change the Framework Version of a Project in VS 2008

Visual Studio 2008 allows you to switch which version of the .net framework your project targets.  The available options are 2.0, 3.0, and 3.5. 

To change the framework version open up your project properties compile tab

 

 

You will find the framework option combobox on the form that opens when you press the Advanced Compile Options button

 

 

 

Visual studio will save the project, close, and finally restart with project opened up when you change the framwork version for your project

What if I create a class library to support several versions of .Net Framework. I want it so classes or class members using newer framework will not be available to referrencing projects set to older versions.

You would have to maintain multiple versions of the dll. The dll would crash if the required version of the framework is not available.
