You cannot make an executable in the sense that people no longer need to install R. What you can do is have a look at Rscript. This enables you to create R programs, e.g. your GUI, that can be run using a shortcut. Note that this still requires your users to install R, and add the location of the R set of executables (R, Rscript, etc, all in $R_HOME/bin) to their $PATH environment variable.
