after the application is complete

[viper5646]

Hi Everyone
I have completed my 1st app.
How do I go about using it on another computer.

Thanks

Your question makes no specific reference to databases so is this really the right forum for it? Also, you're going to have to provide some sort of description of how your app was created. At the moment we know NOTHING about it so how can we tell you how to use it? It's quite possible that you can just copy the EXE to another machine but there's no way for us to know that for sure without some information about the app.

I can't tell you that given that I don't know what you used to create the app in the first place.

When you run your project in the debugger the output is stored in the bin\Debug folder under the project folder. When you want to deploy, you should use the Build menu to compile and the output is stored in the bin\Release folder under the project folder. That output should include your EXE, your database and any other required files, like DLLs.

Thread moved from "Database Development" forum to "Application Deployment" forum, which is where questions about installing/distributing your software belong
