Game

Hello every one

I designed game using visual basic program language through Visual studio
2005.

The game works good on my computer.

But when I did copy to all the files of this game and copied them on my
brother's computer

( child) the program does not work because the VB program not installed on
his computer.

Please can any person guide me exactly what I have to do ?

It's not practical to make a copy of Visual Basic program on my brother's
computer !!!!?

Is there a good source (book) I can read in such case.

Thank you all.

If you wrote the game in Visual Studio 2005 then your brother will
need atleast the .NET runtime to play it:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Then he should be able to run your game. If this isn't enough you may
have to package your game up in a proper installation program. If you
used Visual Studio Professional edition then create a "setup" project
and put your program into it. If you used the free Express edition of
Visual Studio I'm not sure if it has this functionality. Try just
installing the .NET runtime and see if that's enough to make it work.
Also, when you build the Executable system for his machine, make sure
your editor is in "Release" mode rather than "Debug" mode which will
make the application more compact.
