Compiled project won't launch on machines without .NET

I have my project written in VB.NET. Works fine at my station and others who have the .NET framework installed. However, the application needs to run on machines where the Framework isn't installed.
So my question is: Is there a way to compile the Project in such a way that it works without the .NET Framework installed?
 
I've never heard of anything like that. Everywhere I've ever looked simply says "Install the .NET Framework." You can include the Framework with your Setup package, and the Framework itself is free... why can't the Framework be installed on those machines?

You can't run it without .NET Framework installed.

It's not that it can't be installed on those machines. I just asked if it was possible to do without.
 
RizMan -

The framework is required on all machines that will be running .NET code, the same way as VB6 apps need the VB6 runtime files.

You can get the framework via WindowsUpdate.
