How do I tell if a win32 application uses the .NET runtime

Question

How do I tell if an executable is a .NET application?

I prefer not to have to install Visual Studio. But if I have to I will. A commandline program is preferred.

You could use ILDasm.exe whitch is installed by default together with installing the .Net Framework SDK on your machine (look in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\Bin) Just open ildasm.exe en drop de the assembly in it, if it's dissambled it's a .net, if you receive an error it's not.
