I used to be able to make small programs in vb 6 and send them to friends with no problems of missing file. Now I have .NET and this isn't possible if they dont also have .NET. I really dont want to make a huge install program and everything its pretty overkill for what i'm doing. Is there anyway I can find out what files are neccessary and put everything in a zip file? They all have the same os winxp just not .NET if that makes any difference. thanks
