exe won't run

I created a VB.Net windows application. It distributes fine.
I made a copy of the entire folder structure for the project.
Opened up the vbproj from this newly created folder structure, changed a few
properties on a Button.
Compiled a release version.
Runs fine on the same dev machine, but will not run on other boxes with the
same OS and dotNet framework.

Anybody know what I am missing here (besides much dotNet experience :)

Thanks,
Steve

What clues can you offer other than "won't run"? Do you get an error message?

Q
Did you install the .Net framework on the "boxes" where
you want to install the application?

Greetings,

Yes, just one of those unhandled exception error messages that don't tell
you squat. The kind with only an OK and a Cancel button.

Yes, the boxes have the same framework as the dev box.

I also found out that it only runs on other machines that have Visual Studio
..Net installed on them.
