Custom control toolbox installation for different .NET Framework versions

$

Hi All,

Why if I compile the following code with Target Framework as .NET Framework 4.0 I can install the .NET Framework 4.0 version of my custom control while if I compile it with Target Framework as .NET Framework 2.0 I can only install .NET Framework 2.0 version of my custom control.

I would like to use the same .NET Framework 2.0 utility to install both versions (Fx20 and Fx40) of my custom control. What should I change?

Thanks,

Alberto
