Hi,
Just a beginner to this.
I have a simple application (no linked to any database or using any ASP) and I want to run the .exe file in other PC with windows 98 without any .NET.

Probably I have to add more stuff on the .exe to make work on any Windows OS
What should I do?
Thanks for help
Francisco

Well, the "add more stuff" in this case means installing the .NET Framework on the Windows 98 machine. You can't run a .NET exe on Windows without the .NET Framework installed.

You can get the (relatively small) .NET redistributable from this page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/downloads/

Cheers,

Imar

I was afraid of such answer.
I want to send this application to a group that can/cannot have .Net framework.
is there any way around this?
Thanks

No. .NET applications need the .NET Framework to run on.

You could, however, create a setup for your application that includes the .NET Framework. When your users then try to install your app, and the Framework isn't present, it will be installed automatically.

Take a look here for some ideas:

Iamar,
Thanks a lot. I have a place to start now.
