So let me get this straight - - I have a 2.0 site
I'd like to change it to a 3.5 site (having been told my 2.0 code won't
break)

I found this article at 4guys from Rolla about changing Web.config items:
http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/121207-1.aspx

If I understand this correctly, it seems like, if I make these web.config
changes, my site is then useable as a 3.5 site, right?
(or is there something else I'm overlooking?)

the 3.5 framework needs to be installed, or include the required 3.5 dlls in
bin folder.

Sorry - I know about installing the 3.5 framework -

I'm talking about converting the site, so that newer 3.5 technologies can be
used within the site (listview, etc).

My site is hosted and they say 3.5 is installed on my server - - I need to
update my project, wherever needed, to allow me to add some of the newer
stuff.
When I asked them about stuff not working, they asked me if my web.config
file was updated for 3.5 - I found the 4guys from Rolla page, so I thought
I'd ask if that was all that was needed to update my site if 3.5 was already
installed?

nope, you need to recompile the site as a 3.5 project also

You can't just change the web.config and expect it to be converted from
2.0 to 3.5
