i have a c# application and i want to distribute it to many people. i believe not all of them have the FRAMEWORK i can not give them all the 32 MB. ( right ?) is there any thing like : "take from framework JUST WHAT IS NECCESSARY " ??? so the file will be smaller ? and if not , what can i do ?

[Robert Rohde]

Tell them they are better off when their system is up to date and install the framework. Other possibility would be NOT to use .Net but C++, VB6 or something similar instead.

At this moment if someone on Windows doesn't have .NET framework then that is mainly theirs problem...

Why not? Direct them to the correct download page at the Mictosoft homepage, where they can download the framework if needed.

If you application is the simple app (e.g. Desktop application) and there's no need to dynamically load/create types or expose types defined in your app to external clients (plug-in, unmanaged apps) - you can try one of these "IL to executable" compilers. All these products are commercial (at least I haven't heard of any open source/freeware products) - google on "Xenocode, Salamander, IL Compiler" and try it out.
