It is true that VB uses a lot of dll's, and you do need these files if you wish your program to work on other computers.
The best way to achive this is by using the Package And Deployment Wizard (PDW). Which creates a setup program for your VB project. This PDW will automatically include any Dll's your project needs.
When the setup program is run it will automatically install and register these dll's, saving you a lot of hassle.
You can also get a 1.3MB installer of the VB runtime DLLs - which are the ones most people are lacking in on older systems - if you want me to send you it then you can mail me...
