dot net (.net) question

Can someone please clarify the relationships of the different versions
of dot net (.net, dot net framework, whatever)?

In particular, does installing the latest version (which I think is 3.5)
also meet the needs of programs that require .net versions 1 and/or
version 2? Or do you install .net 1 and .net 2 and .net 3 separately as
3 distinct installations.

Thanks

They are all separate applications, not versions of the same program.

Each version of .NET is separate.
Example: .NET 2.0 does not replace .NET 1.0

However .NET service packs may include
updates for more than one version of .NET
As an example .NET 3.5 SP1 includes updates
for not only .NET 3.5 but also earlier versions.
