See this Link

There are different versions of c/c++ runtime libraries
u can see in ur project settings under link u can see single threaded/multithreaded etc stuff.

The exe and the dll should be compatible with the runtime used..

Also i think even if both the dll and exe linked at runtime with different crt libraries it wont work
