I wrote a program in VC++ .NET. when I only carry the executable to other machine to run, it couldn't run. What other component is possibly missing so that I cannot run the program on the machine that disn't install VC.NET?

Depends on the application. Very few applications will run by just copying in the executable over to another computer.

For instance with .NET the other computer has to be running the .NET Framework. The .NET framework is avalalble for both Windows XP and Windows 98.

There are registry entries and possibly DLL files needed.

The only sure way to run an application on a computer other than the one it was written on is via a proper installation routine.
