!@#$ DLLs?

Every project I compile in Visual Studio .NET (whether it be in C# or C++ using MFC) fails to run on any machine that doesn't have VS.NET in it, even if I compile a release version.

Anybody know how I can compile an .EXE of a C# program that will actually run on a Windows 98 machine?

I even tried it on my college's Win98 machines, and they have Visual Studio 6 on them. No dice.

Im pretty sure any computer running Windows9x cant run C#, because u cant get the .NET Framework on it

If you are using the .NET framework, the machine needs a framework installed. You can download the redistributables to install on a client PC ( kinda DirectX ) at www.microsoft.com for download. If you are using plain C++/MFC, it should run on target machines without .NET. However, you need SP6 for NT and maybe some stuff for 98 before you can run it.
