portability

I am using VS .NET and I can release a peice of code and it works on my dev
machine everytime. When I take it to a different machine it always fails,
even when I put it in the same relativity to its dll refs. does anyone know
why this is.
thanx in advance.

You need to copy all the referenced dll in the same directory as the
executable (or GAC it) - and they have to be identical copies (the same
version and all)

Robert,

There are a number of reasons it could be failing. Can you be more
descriptive about how it is failing, and any error messages you might be
getting?

The program uses an AXwebbrowser and several references.
the only dlls that don't wrap in are the two that are for the axwebbrowser I
copy them with the exe and it works in other directoriess on teh dev machine
but on my other machiens fails under all circumstances.
