I'm wanting to compile my project to a single exe so that I can add it to a flash drive and be able to run the program without having to install anything. Does anyone know how to do this?

does your app require basics like .net framework, sql server etc..
????

Well I have some DLL's from a VB.NET plugin that I used in my app. When I build the project and then copy the .exe, .xml, & .pbs(??) out of the folder and try to run it on a different computer, I get an error and it want's to debug. When i debug it on that, it tells me that it doesn't know how to call one of the Imports since they aren't standard DLL's provided by Microsoft.

How can I correct this?

use ilmerge.exe to merge the DLLs you use to your EXE .. see the tutorials links i provided ..
