Creating an executable

[Jon Paskett]

Where is there a walkthru for creating an exe?

[Mr Newbie]

Every time you compile, you create an executable ( Well Portable Executable
(PE) ) which contains Intermediate Language (IL) and MetaData about the
program. This runs on the Common Language Runtime (CLR), and JIT;ed into
machine code at execution time.

So if you were looking for a stand alone .Exe, there isnt one.

What sort of "exe" do you want to create?

Console Application?
Windows Forms Application?
Windows Service?
(many, many others ... )

What tools do you want to use? The command line compiler "vbc.exe"? Visual
Studio .NET?

Thanks all,

I found the walk thru in Visual Studio .Net; deploying a Windows
Application. It got me started.
