Hi, runtimes files on the target machine are required, you could distribute the required files by building a setup project (File > Add Project > Setup ...) Right mouse on the Setup Project in the Solution explorer window > Add > Merge Module... > select Microsoft_VC80_DebugCRT_x86.msm for more details plz go to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms225293(VS.80).aspx[^] Good Luck ;), NajiCo

Nope, this Merge Module contains all that is required
