Use sdk 9.0 to integrate old systems

Is it really 1.0 or is it 1.1? VS2003 was built around 1.1. There's a big difference there.

You can't run two assemblies from two version of the framework in the same process. Do you still have access to the code, can you write in new features and recompile? I'm assuming you'll need to do something like that if you're going to integrate with Laserfiche. If you can at least recompile as a version of .NET that runs on CLR 2.0, then you should be able to interop with assemblies built on 2.0-3.5. Otherwise you have to expose your 3.5 assemblies as COM objects and it quickly gets messy (but is still doable).

Another option would be to write your new functionality in whatever version of .NET you want (including the newest versions) and expose it as web services configured for simple binding. Even the earliest versions of .NET can consume simple web services.

A web service is a good idea. If it needs to run on the client machine it could also be a separate exe that reads command line parameters.

It's possible that it's 1.1. VS2002 was the first proper version of Visual Studio and it supported .NET 1.0. VS2003 came less than a year later and added support for .NET 1.1.

I hope it works out.
