Well first of all, who is the target user for this application? Is it just going to be used by you? Is it going to be freely available for anyone to download from a website or something? Is it going to be distributed around your workplace? etc etc The target audience may dictate which method of distribution you use thats all.

Anyway, to simply create an EXE that you can run, just click Build Solution on the Build menu at the top of Visual Studio. Once you have done that, assuming the build is successful, you will find an EXE in your project solution directory under \bin\Release
So if you saved your project to C:\MyVBProject then your exe would be in C:\MyVBProject\Bin\Release
