I have created a c++ program using Visual Studio 2005 which utilises a microsoft agent character. However, the program only seems to run on computers which have Visual Studio 2005. If I pass on the program to another computer which even has microsoft agent installed when the program is run an error message appears saying "The application has failed. Reinstalling may fix this issue."

I would appreciate any help on this issue, to get the program to work on any computer. If anyone knows of specific dll's or other files i will need to provide it would be much appreciated.

It's hard to figure out what might be wrong from reading your description of the issue.

One thing though. If you're using c++/CLI (to take advantage of CTS for instance) then you should make sure that the .Net framework is properly installed on the machine where the code doesn't run.

If you're using native C++ then your issue might suggest that the station where the code doesn't compile may just be outdated Windows wise.

Your error message is so generic, it may too suggest that you're not catching a potentially more specific error code.

Gd luck
