Then you have to give the published copy of your project. In published copy the code behind files will converted to dlls. so client will not able to see the server side code. you have deploy this published copy in client IIS or in any hosting site. For sql server part you have to install it in client system or you can buy space from any hosting site.

Hi Asp.net is a web based Application. If you want to give it tio client you have to host it in IIS and give the url to Client. you cant convert a webbased asp.net website to .exe. .exe can be generated in windows application.
