application configuration incorrect

[Tom_C_]

I havea simple vb.net form which calls a fortran .dll It runs fine in Visual studio 2005 and I can put the .exe and the .dll in a folder on my computer and italso runs fine. However, when I try to put it on another computer the VB comes up fine but when it tries to access the .dll I get - unable to load the dll - application configuration is incorrect exception from HRESULT 0x800736B1.Doesn't matter if i copy the files or make an .msi and install.I ran the depends utilty which said I'm missing msvcr80D.dll but a search on my c: drive (where the program runs) doesn't find this file. Suggestions?

You need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributables Installer on the other system.

Sorry - there was a big clue in your first post and I missed it. You cannot redistribute a "debug" build of an application. Build it as a "Release" configuration and it should be ok. You could also, if this DLL is called only from VB (and not from Fortran), go into the Fortran properties and select Libraries > Use Run-Time Library > Multithreaded (/MT).

Steve,

Thanks for the suggestion. The fortran part appears to work fine now.
