Putting a program on another computer

Hi, I'm kindn of new at VB (VB6). I'm making a program, and it involves pictures. Now, when I make the exe and put the program on another computer, do I need to include the pictures with it? Or are the pictures like loaded into the exe already?

Also, I'm wondering about the location of the program. If I have the program in C:\Documents and Settings\My Name\Desktop\VB\Slider\, will it try to use the long path to get the pictures, or will it just look for file.jpg in the path the exe is loaded in? Because I know that no one else will have the same path as me since it involves my name.

Thanks :)

If pictures are already loaded (basically you did that in design) then all you need to do is compile your app - images will be compiled all together.
If you load images from the hard drive (perhaps using LoadPicture) then you will have to include them all in your ditribution package.
You can also use resource file, database...

Well I made 81 picture boxes and put a picture in each, then made the exe, so I'm guessing that's all set. :)

Put together an installation and setup package and test on one machine to see what happens.

If all goes well, roll it out to everyone.
