No, that's not supported.

Hi,

The VS.NET 2003 is bound to .NET framework 1.1 and cannot use .NET
framework 2.0 instead.

Visual Studio 2003 compiles to framework 1.1. The code can be run on a
computer only having framework 2.0, though.

Is this really true? My understanding is that if an application is built to
use 1.1 then it needs 1.1 installed on the target PCs.

IIRC no, but testing is required because there might be some
incompatibilities between .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0.
