.exe file created in VB.NET running on the PC without VB

Does anybody know hot to make .exe file created in VB.NET running on the mchines without VB.NET being installed? Is there should be some piece of code that lets do it?

Thanks

Yeah. Install the .NET framework on the PC.

I think you'll need to have the vb.net runtime file installed on the computer that will be running your program. Runtime files for .net are available at the MSDN site. You can also get the .net framework via the Windows Update function. See
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ageruntime.asp for more info. The files are available at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Hope this helps.

In previous versions of VB there needed to be a runtime DLL file on the computer in order for the VB application to run.

With VB.NET there is no more runtime DLL.

All .NET applications require the .NET Framework to be installed on the machine that is going to run the applications, no matter which .NET language is used to write the application.

All .NET applications are compiled into MSIL (Microsoft Intermediate Language), which is then Interpreted/JIT (Just In-Time) Compiled by the .NET Framework on the machine that is running it.

In theory, if the OS supports the .NET Framework then any .NET application will be able to run on a computer with that OS. There is an open source implementation of the .NET Framework called Mono and it is located at http://www.go-mono.org. Mono is being created to give Mac OS, Linux, Windows, and other OS's support for the .NET Framework.
