.NET framework

Do applications developed with the dot NET tools such as
VS require that end users have the .NET 1.1 framework
installed on their machine?

They'll need a version of the framework installed, not necessarily v. 1.1

Visual Studio .NET still includes Visual C++,
and thus you can maintain and create classic Win32/MFC/ATL...
applications that don't require the .NET Framework runtime.

But if you use the new .NET languages like
C#, VB.NET or 'Managed C++ .NET',
then your users have to install the .NET Framework runtime:

If you used classic VB (...VB5/VB6), then you have to migrate to VB.NET.
