Hello,
I've searched this newsgroup, but i can't find the answer.

We have some programs written in VB 6, and we've upgraded
to VB.NET recently.But I can't find a way to build native
win32 executable, which can run without .NET framework.

Thanks in advance,
Cecil.
 
Hi,
I don't think there is any such utility that Microsoft offers, may be
you will find some third party utility i am not sure.

Right, .NET applications need the .NET framework. It contains the libraries
you use, the JIT-compiler, managed execution including memory management and
so on.

As a matter of interest what's wrong with using the .NET Framework?

Nick.

This is impossible and doesn't make sense.
