So I made a program, and have thoroughly tested the bugs out, and now finally figured out how to make a release build for my grandfather to see. So he tries running it and it crashes on the first input. I was told i may need to send him the run time or statically link something? I am confused. Can some1 shed some light?

Check and make sure he has the redistributables (e.g., http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=a7b7a05e-6de6-4d3a-a423-37bf0912db84&displaylang=en). He may also need the 2005 or 2008 ones for any older dlls, check and see if the 2010 ones supersede those in the 2005 and 2008 redistributables.
