How do I make it so that I can send the program to other people? for instance, when I click debug it runs the program right? how can I get it into a .exe format and have it as an actual application on my desktop?

Hmm. Usually if you compile it as "RELEASE" - so that you can "RELEASE" it. The program is usually in the "RELEASE" folder of your project.

on VB6 its
File -> Build Filename.exe
on VC++6 its
Build-> Build All -> Build

do Build-> Clean everytime you edit something what clean does is just delete old files so it could overwrite em with new ones

You have to statically link the runtime... or be cool and just not use it.

2085 posts yet you don't know how to build a program???? Shocked

lol @TeNsIOn: so true

@zand by just changing it to a Release build will not remove problems with code.. nor make it compatible with older operating systems..

make it work on older OS's requires knowledges of Older OS's API and use of API and a VeryNice GetVersionInfo(Ex) API that retrieves the Version of Windows or Other OS's(Apple is one i think it look for and some other(maybe unixtype variants..))..suffice to this add a slight layer of complexity to all code but its worth doing it once or twice to get the hang of it Smile

but code ends up looking like in true end:
If(9 Cool

code
if(nt)
code
if(2k)
code

so give it a try also remove the Option IN VC++ to Optimize For Windows 98! its not good for code :]

However, BanMe, if you use APIs specific to newer OS version in your version-dependant code (say, under if(nt) in your psuedocode), you have to load the libraries dynamically and use function pointers (LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress), otherwise the functions are just imported and you will get missing library/import not found in library errors at runtime on older OSes.

I ask because i never released a program of mine to the public until recently. Also, post count has nothing to do with knowledge.

well that is a valid point in that using other OS version API would cause program errors...
thats why I put it upon the OP to provide version specific safe code.. (hoping he knew enough to actuactly get a working model going)..

so all in all that is a good pointer to use GetProcAddress LoadLibrary

but simpler way is to just IMPORT The API in a Control block Wink
