Newbie question

Hi, as denoted in my subject, I am relatively new to vb.net. I created a program using some RS-232 communication functions, and it won't run on any computer except for the one I created it on. It throws a DLL error (mscorwks.dll) when I try to run it. Is there something that needs to be done to my program, or do all machines have to be running the same version of the .NET framework? I apologize for my ignorance. Thanks in advance.

They need the .NET framework.

Even running on a copy of Win XP including the .NET framework, it doesn't work. It is looking for the DLL in a subfolder under windows/.NET/Framework with a different version name. I'll have to update every machine so it has the same version as the program I'm running, or can I configure the program to search for the DLL in the framework folder, not just the specific version folder? Thanks, I appreciate your help.
