I have a vb.net program running and i have a asp.net website running, is there a way that they can communicate. I need to be able to start a certain process in the vb.net application. Is this possible, even if the website and the vb.net application isn't running on the same machine(this is optional)? they are running on the same machine
Ty for your help
this may be the most stupid solution for this but anyhow here goes!!!
You could get your asp.net website to send an email to the machine with vb.net application on it. Then get your vb.net app to watch your outlook inbox and if an email appears with certain text(that could be parameters), start the process.
The other option i suppose would be to use some kind of webservice.
That is what Web Services are for.
i'll look in to the webservice thingy
and what if the program is already running (the vb/net.application)?
again ty
