Packaging Visual Basic .net program and resources together to make it stand-alone exe

I'm developing a very simple program in VB2010 Express that will create folders based on entries in a remote database. I am fully aware that the minimum requirement to run the exe is the latest .net framework, however I have a few added resources to the file, and when I try to run the executable on another computer, it fails to run stating that the resources are missing.

How do i compile my VB code AND the resources together into a stand-alone executable that only requires the .net framework to be installed?

I have already tried to google this issue, however every answer I find has nothing to do with my initial question...

Thanks

Make sure you mark your resx files (or other resource files such as images etc) as Embedded Resource in their Build Action.
