Answer 1

You can modify the project settings to link statically to the C runtime (I assume this is what you mean when you said windows runtime ?). The static link flags are:

• MultiThreaded static linkage (/MT)
• MultiThreaded debug static linkage (/MTd)

Sorry, been awhile since I used VC6.0, so I had to check the GUI. You'll find this in project settings, C++ tab, Code Generation combo box, "Use run-time library").

Answer 2

To add to what Cannonade has already said, if you are doing it through Visual Studio, then this can be done through Project Settings->General Page->Use MFC as a static library. This way your created exe will be ready to run on any windows box.
