leontager Posted August 2, 2003 Posted August 2, 2003 I have a program that I wrote on VB but I want it to run on my other computer. I don't want to install .net on it but when I just copy the .exe it tells me that I am missing some dll file. I copied that dll into the floppy where I had the exe but then it tells me that I am missing a bunch of other stuff:( Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted August 2, 2003 *Experts* Posted August 2, 2003 You need to install the whole .NET framework on the client computer, there is no way around it. :) Quote
leontager Posted August 2, 2003 Author Posted August 2, 2003 so what happens if you are making a commercial program. you can't have all of .net in the zip file right :-) maybe I need to just include some dll's? I have searched for this question on yahoo and I found some page from microsoft that tells me to use the wizard to create an installable file but I am not sure where to find it. Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted August 2, 2003 *Experts* Posted August 2, 2003 .NET framework comes with its own installer so you dont need to pack into ZIP :). Maybe this link will help you: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpguide/html/cpcondotnetfxexedeploymentscenarios.asp It disuccses .NET Framework deployment scenarios.

leontager Posted August 2, 2003 Author Posted August 2, 2003 actually I found the file you were talking about. I remember now that I had to download the visual basic 6 run time files as well. this is the link. http://download.microsoft.com/download/a/a/c/aac39226-8825-44ce-90e3-bf8203e74006/dotnetfx.exe its around 23mb. thank you for your help:) Quote
