Create a jar file containing all the resources that the program uses that can be copied to other PCs that have the JRE installed.

I've always just copied the jar file to the other PC. It needs to have a JRE.

Assuming you have a JRE on the target machine you just have to copy the jar onto it and double-click the jar for your program to execute. Do you have any resources outside your jar that the program needs to run (eg database)?
