well, first of all, "Programming till i drop", i hope you dropped, if not please read the asp documentation before posting, Server.Execute executes .asp files, not executables. Look here for more info: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...f/vbob9pid.htm

As for running executables from your asp pages, don't do it, figure out a way to do with in proc components, it'll be significantly faster than executing an Exe. If you want the pain of executing an [ActiveX] .Exe then you need to do a registry hack for IIS 4.0[IIS 5.0 ignores the hack, more info: http://support.microsoft.com/support.../Q233/9/68.ASP]. The IIS 4 hack for launching out of process components(ActiveX Exe's to clarify) can be found here:
