In general remoting is supposed to interoperate between .NET 1.0 and 1.1, however a few "bugs" slipped through (IPAddress and Comparer classes are the only two problems I'm aware of). It is possible to work around these issues, but it can be fairly complex if you want to do it transparently.
See my post on this issue: http://discuss.develop.com/archives/wa.exe?A2=ind0306B&L=ADVANCED-DOTNET&D=0&I=-3&P=3118 A Thread with some comments from Doug Purdy (MS PM for the serialization team): http://discuss.develop.com/archives/wa.exe?A2=ind0306D&L=DOTNET-CLR&P=R475&I=-3 Rick ----- Original Message ----- From: "Igor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2003 12:02 PM Subject: clinet 1.0 <-> server 1.1 > I posted a problem on MS remoting newsgroup (with the same subject, if you > want a full story) regarding error in .Net when using client using > framework 1.0 and server using framework 1.1 and get a replay from Ingo > Rammer (thanks Ingo) saying that the serialization format of Datasets has > been changed in ADO.NET 1.1.
