separately installed. If the .Net Framework version 1.1 is not installed an error message will be
displayed when Revit is started. You can download a copy of the .Net Framework version 1.1 by
searching for ".Net Framework version 1.1 redistributable package" in the downloads section of
Microsoft's website.
