If I write an application in C#.NET and then deploy it to
my customer it requires them to have a copy of the .NET
framework. I suppily a link on a webpage where they can
download it. I was wondering do I have to pay any license
fees for people using the framework to run an application?
The application is a commerical application.

Thanks

Al

No, you don't have to pay license fees to Microsoft. Also, for what it's
worth, you can distribute the .Net Framework Redistributable Package with
your application. (E.g., if you're distributing your app on CD.)

I was also wondering if this applies to the .NET CE
Framework?

There aren't any license fees for the Compact Framework either. I'm not
familiar with distribution issues for the CF.
