    when you save your work in the IDE, the exe is automatically compiled and resides in the bin folder

    youre welcome. i had the same trouble when i started with vb 2003 a few weeks back. in vb6, you have to manually compile the app. in 2003 and up, its done when you save your work. i was going crazy.

    Don't forget to change the mode to release if its a final release, as the one in the bin folder is for debugging purposes I believe

    It doesn't happen when you save your work, it happens when you compile and run your program.

    Also as the182guy said, if you are releasing it, you should change it from debug to release using the configuration manager.
