If you have a program that requires .net framework 1.1, then you'll know
it after you uninstall the framework.

Any way David, the information is correct and Mr. Arnold cannot deny it.

Yes. I think 1.x was different enough that there is no support for it in
later versions. I'm not certain about 2.0 and if 3.5 supports it or not.

Yes if something you have installed needs it. All the versions of .Net
Framework - 1.1, 2.0, 3.5, etc. - are completely separate and different
from each other. IOW, they are not versions of the same program. Software
you have installed was built using some flavor of .Net and if you
uninstall .Net, that program won't work.

Yes, you should be able to uninstall .net framework 1.1.

He can uninstall it, but if some program requires it that program will cease
to work. See my previous reply to the OP.

That depends on whether you have applications installed that require v1.1
specifically. If you remove v1.1 and some of your applications no longer
work, then you'll know for sure. Unless you have some specific reason for
*needing* to remove v1.1, I'd suggest you leave it alone.
..NET Framework v1.0, v1.1 and v2.0 are separate entities. v3.0 an v3.5 are,
essentially, add-ons to v2.0. As you say you have v3.5 installed, you
actually have v2.0 + v3.0 and v3.5.

Is there a way to check to see the last time .net framework 1.1 was accessed?

Not that I know of, but maybe somebody else here has an idea.
