It depends which version of Visual Studio:

In 2002, all projects use .Net 1.0
In 2003, all projects use .Net 1.1
In 2005, all projects use .Net 2.0
In 2008, all projects use .Net 2.0, 3.0, or 3.5; you can change the version in Project Properties
In 2010, all projects use .Net 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, or 4.0; you can change the version in Project Properties
