You can try to use something as "Dependancy Walker".
An other solution is to make your soft static (no dll dependancies).

I did it the unsophisticated way:  Bring the program to another computer and note each DLL file it complained was missing when I tried to execute it.  Bring over each relevant file from the development computer (ie. from the compiler's bin folder) until the program does run without error.  After I knew the full set of needed files was assembled, I packaged them together and it's ready to distribute.

@raynebc: This is not reliable. You need to do this on a clean operating system, just after installation.

I did that testing with a PC that had no development software on it.  The second step is to monitor user feedback for error dialogs regarding missing library files, which happened on rare occasion when I did something like change compilers.
