How do I make a C sharp application?

[kbarber]

Can someone tell me how to build a C sharp application from a solution that I could then email to someone else?

Build and email it! Just make sure that you will also email dll files your solution is using but most of these dll resides in windows, so there shouldn't be a problem anyway. Oh and one more thing: go to project->properties and choose release or both configurations (debug+release), the release version is the one that this "someone else" should run.

PS: Post c# questions in the c# forum.

Thank you for your reply.
Can I send just the files in the "Release" folder, or do I have to send all of the files in the subfolders of the "Release" folder, as well?

Send the Release Folder as it is. But I repeat that if you use dll files that the other computer doesn't have, you will have a problem. To be sure about this, you must create a setup file. First make a backup of your project and then do it! Those 2 links will be a great help. You only need a few hours and you will get this properly done. Then you will send the setup file as you should.
