    Default .Net Framework 1.1

    Anybody know anything out there for Ubuntu that can run applications designed to run with the .Net Framework? Both my Scheduling program and Weekly report programs require this to run. I would like to try using Ubuntu more often and if I had a way to run those programs it would give me more reason to be running my install of Ubuntu. thanks in advance.

    I like that the office software is compatible with the Windows products. I can build a spreadsheet in Ubuntu and then take it to work and edit it there.

    What kind of scheduling program are we talking about. Is it something that schedules programs on the computer to run at a certain time? If so you should use the cron for that. If you are talking about a life planning/management application, I'm sure there are open source alternatives that run natively on Linux (Sunbird maybe? I don't use calenders or daily planners so I'm not very qualified to answer it.), otherwise Wine is your first choice for running Windows binaries in Linux. There is also Mono, and a few other similar projects that implement the .NET framework for Unix-like environments.

    This is a program for work scheduling. Everything is stored on a central computer owned by the company who puts together out sales numbers. Basically right now if I edit the employee schedule here at home then save it it sends it to the central computer. Then I can pull it back up at the store with all the changes I made. Plus my Co-Manager can pull it up at home, my DM can check it to see whats been scheduled in the store. It really helps when multiple people can see the changes as soon as they are done and saved to the main computer.

    What I'm looking for is the program (called "Labor Scheduler") requires the .Net Framework 1.1 to run. I was looking for some thing that can allow the program to run in Ubuntu just like it was running in Windows XP.

    Ok, then You'll want to run that with Wine, and either have the mono libraries installed or install the Microsoft .net binaries though Wine.
