[RESOLVED] Passing data from asp.net to a vb.net desktop app

Hi

I'm trying to figure out how this scenerio is accomplished:

How would a vb.net desktop app query and get a result set from the web app?


I'm developing an asp.net application for my company (where its deployed is TBD). Every day I need to pass totals from the asp.net app to Quickbooks.

I was thinking I could write a little vb.net program (front end for Access with linked tbls to Quickbooks). That program would request totals from the web and update the appropriate tables.


Thanks

Wouldn't it make more sense if your web application stored all necessary data in a database, that could then be queried by your windows application?
