I have developed a program using VB.NET running with mysql (.mdf/.sdf) database file. It's definitely running well in my development machine. Now I have compiled and come out the .exe file that want it to run in another personal computer without visual studio & other development tools. What are the software requirements for the PC to run the database file? Since i don't want to install visual studio, SQL management studio or other heavy development tool in the client PC.

I presume you mean SQL Server Compact Edition rather than "mysql".
You either have to get the user to install the runtime on their desktop or package 7 dll files with your application, see: How to Deploy a Sql Compact Database with an Application
