    It doesn’t matter whether computer has Visual Studio installed or not. However, computer must have installed .Net Framework, it has to be proper version of it as well.

    Version can be same or higher than the one your application targets. For example, if you are working in Visual Studio 2010 (which has .NET version 4.0) you can make programs that will run on computers with lover .NET version (let's say 2.0). For this, when creating new project (File -> New Project) select proper .NET version that your application will target (in case described above - version 2.0).

    Regarding running .exe file without installation, it’s a controversial subject. You can read discussion about it here http://forums.devx.com/showthread.php?t=171162

  • It doesn't matter if you have VB Studio. What matters is if you have the .NET framework (I think for 2010 is V4)
