    Hi All, I'm using VS C# 08 EXPRESS EDITION / WINDOWS FORMS APP. Now, I would like to know if there is a way to publish my prject as a standalone application (where there is just one .EXE file THAT IS THE ACTUAL PROGRAM ITSELF) or where it publishes the project as JUST ON INSTALLATION FILE. I am really getting sick and tired of these files that VS produces (Application Files Folder, Setup.exe, Project Manifest file). I have had no luck in finding a solution to my problem. Can anybody please offer any advice/tutorial etc... i'd appreciate any help i can get on this :-) thanks for reading. regards, j.t.

          You should rather compile in Release mode, and use the file in the bin\Release folder.

          Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.
