how to run a .net2005 application from sql job

[ljhopkins_1]

I can run a vb6 applicaton from SQL Jobs doing the following
I create a bat file with the following code (run.bat)
C:\progra~1\GCO_Daily_data\GCO_Daily_data.exe
then in sqljob i create a new step using type operationg system cand and then calling the bat file C:\progra~1\GCO_Daily_data\GCO_Daily_data\.run.bat
but since there is no exe in vb.net 2005 how do i do this
I tried creating a run.bat file with the path the
C:\Documents and Settings\hopkinsl1\Start Menu\Programs\Suntron\SCWebMail
but it does not run (its a module type of application that displays a console write so I can see what is happning)
Why does .net2005 not create a REAL EXE

The .Net do have the exe excutable file. The project will compile and build the exe in your Debug folder. However, the .Net exe will need the framework in the client machine if you want to deploy it to the client machine.
