    First, compile in Release mode, then yeah, just copy the .exe

    Set in the Project setting to link statically, then compile in Release mode. Then it will run on any PC without VC.

    [talkative mode on]
    This is 1 advantage of VC over VB. That is also 1 of the reasons I switch to VC from VB. 3 years ago I made a 'dumb' VB program which I wanted to show off to my friends, it couldn't run on their PC as they do not have VB runtime. And they do not want to install VB runtime just to run my 'dumb' program.(They are not IT savvy people).

    Ahh, the pains of VB and the wonders of VC++.

    Btw, Daok, you might want to check the project settings before compiling. Some things there (especially compiling for fast/small code, using/not using runtimes, etc) might be important.

    Build > Set Active Configuration > Release

    Thx you all!
