If this is a two step process--making an application for pc which doesn't have LV installed--that explains my problem.  I was fooled into thinking my process worked when I installed it on machines that already had LV installed.

You are correct, it is a two step process.  You can only use an application (.exe) on systems with the LV development sw already installed, because it has the runtime loaded on it; otherwise, you first create the app, then the installer.
