But that is in one of the folders that it contains please tell me how to fix it thx. Oh and please tell me how to put it on this site through this post. so you can see for your self. thx.

You can't
You can't put this on PortableApps.com. It is not open-source. And second, just put custstat.dll into the directory where the .exe is.

Being free doesn't
Being free doesn't automatically make it open-source.. the Microsoft EULA still apply, and it is not licensed under GPL.
Also, only the installer for it is available. You can't compile Visual Basic Express itself, since you don't have the source.
#develop
If you want to make a VB.NET IDE Portable, you should make #develop portable. It is also a C# and a boo IDE.

I think someone already did that
I found one awhile ago and it worked but the fact is that the link to it is now dead! I will try to post the link if i can find it but it does not work.

One of the old Visual Studio
One of the old Visual Studio Express IDEs might work portably since they don't require .NET runtime. However, they still can't be posted on here because of GPL restrictions and all that, so you'd have to keep it private.
Sharp Develop portable
I think i will just make a portable # develop since the previous one is dead.

you could try the mono.net
you could try the mono.net which is a project belonging to Mono-Project group and is an open-source implimentation of the .net framework and includes a c# compiler (and also IDE)
The day Microsoft produces something that doesn't suck is
probably the day they start producing vaccuum cleaners. (author unknown)
I don't know....
I have never used it. I was thinking about # develop. Since this link Sharp develop portable is now dead.
