Thanks

is there any way of making an install file to include the required .dll files
 
I use an installer program (InstallShield Express, to be exact). It scans your project for dependancies and create a professional looking setup for you.

If you want something for free, there's Inno Setup, which is quite good but I don't know if it can automatically detect dependancies. I've only used it a couple of times.
 
Err... Visual Studio .NET comes with a project type called "Setup". Add it to your current project's solution.

And just to make sure, you're not trying to distribute System.dll, System.Windows.Forms.dll, etc. are you? That's a huge no no.
