    When you build it, doesn't that create an executable file already?

      This exe will not work outside the project folder. You will have to create a setup/installer.

        What happens if you try to use it outside the project folder, copying
        all the DLLs as well?

        Not usually. If another computer has the .NET framework on it, just
        copying the exe, any supporting DLLs etc is enough. A setup/installer
        makes this nicer, but it should still work.

        What problems, exactly? Please give us more information.
