Newbie from Linux - question on VStudio DLLs

[mark_s_howie]

Hi,
I am wanting to create a DLL on WindowsXP, though I normally work in
Linux. The application is to run on another machine, currently without
..NET.

I have installed VisualStudio.NET 2003, but I am now worried that DLLs
created using it need .NET installed to work. Is this correct?

The DLL is technical, with no GUI, and is to be written in C (C89
subset of C++).

If you know the answer, I would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance
Mark

You don't need the .NET framework to run native C code dll's built with
VS2003.
