As the title states...

I use Visual Studio 2012 to make my project.

But i wish to make a standalone exe or msi to send to people instead of a zip file with the needed files in it

Appearantly installshield isn't implemented anymore.

Which software can be used to do what i want to accomplish ?

Stef

Search in your project's "/bin" folder.


Generated .exe files end up there 

I am not used to Excel, seldom use it, but it would be possible to use Visual Basic for Forms import the excel and so make it a stand alone program.


If you not have go to Microsoft and download Vs Express for Desktop, a free one.

Vic,

It was that easy, never looked that far 

thanks

ralph, all the implementation is done,
all is done in VS 2012 express :-)
