How can I tell what wheels will fit into a bike frame?

Okay, I want to put at least 700 x 35 tires on a bike, and have it be a single speed.

I am pretty sure most road bikes can't accomodate 35mm + tires. Hence, I will probably want a mountain bike frame (correct me if I am wrong please.)

Bottom line, is there an easy way to tell, by looking at the 'specs' of a frame, what size wheel it will be able to accomodate?

I know that there may be some difficulty putting 700 tires on a MTB, due to brake issues, but that's okay. I just want to know if there's a way to tell what size wheels a frame can take.

Thanks very much, this is an awesome website.

Dueces.
