Create Stand alone programs for other machines

I have a VB.NET program that uses an Access database. I need to be able to put this on other MS Windows XP computers so users can run this. Can anyone please give me instructions on how to do this.

Weird that my VB books and classes never covered this.

Thank you,
Devo

Option1----You need to store the access DB file in a shsred location and access that from all the systems over network.

Option2----Copy the DB file (include in setup) and install in the all the target machine.
