.exe wont open on other computers

[23ADSL3A]

Hi, i've just finished a project (im a beginner ) i think its pretty cool, it constructs the equation of a line with only a slope and one point. Anyway, when i debug to make it an .exe in the debug folder (i hope thats how you do it, if not please tell me how) then i send it to my friend through skype. He also has C++ but when i send it to a computer without C++ it wouldnt open. it says
"This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling application may fix this problem." i tried to look it up but nothing helps. please tell me what to do AND PLEASE make sure it will work. THANKS A LOT.

What compiler are you using?

[23ADSL3A]

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition if thats what your asking

You should tell the linker to link statically to the runtime library or install the dynamic c++ library on the computer on which you want to run the program.
And you shouldn't send the 'debug' build of the program

so which build should i send and how?
also, what if its on school computer, i cant install anything...
