Application maker help

I'm not sure what category this post is in so I just post it here!

Anyway, I'm making an exe file out of my program which I used VB6 to develop with. I use Make Exe in the File menu.
The resulted exe file turned out to run perfectly well. But when I transfer the exe file together with the necessary files needed for the program such as the database file(.mdb) to another computer without VB6 installed, it won't run.It's also looking for VB

What is the problem? How can I make a full stand-alone executable out of my program that will run on other computer without VB6

Reading forum descriptions would have helped you — this clearly isn't a FAQ item. Moved.

The "necessary files" aren't just the ones you use for data etc, there are others which are required by your program, as explained in the FAQ article Why doesn't my program work on another computer? (from our Classic VB FAQs).

That links to our Deployment FAQs, which assist in creating an installation package for your program.

edit: I was too slow!
