Is it possible to convert my app which is in Framework 2 to 3 using VS
2005 and release it to customer?

What approach must I take?

Yes.

You'll need the .NET 3.0 Runtime and the Visual Studio 2005 Extensions.

Your customer will need the .NET 3.0 Runtime.

Hello Mike90,

Just to add to David's post, don't be confused by that WPF/WCF VS 2005 Extention
is CTP (not release), albeit .NET 3.0 redistributive is release.
Binary compartability is the same, but interfaces can be changed a little bit

They claimed that WPF(and probably WCF) will be released in the mid of 2007

Just to be 100% clear. WPF and WCF are released.  It's just the tools
(Visual Studio Extensions) that are still beta.
