run VB.Net without .NET ?

[ss0007]

Hi ,

Recently ,I have written simple app in VB.NET . I wanted to run this to other system which doesnt have the .NET framework / runtime installed . Is it possible to do this ? If not , are there any tools to accomplish the mission ?

Thanks

There are but frankly from what i've heard they can be frought with problems. I'm not going to advocate free advertising and start posting names of comapanies but needless to say that if you google for 'run .net without .net' you will get some hits. Personnally i reckon you should just deploy the framework anyway unless space requirements are really tight. One .Net app usually leads to another and if you statically bind all these together you may find in the future that you could have installed the framework to start with.
