A second program will do all the database work and send requests to the first program to forward information to a server. The second program needs to know if the Internet actions were successful or if there was an error.
    The bolded part is why I suggested testing. Run one compiled app as Admin and the other not as Admin. Will the communication still work both ways?

    Edited: Wasn't hard to test this. Failed if one or the other app was run at a different elevation level. The higher elevation could send but not receive from lower elevated apps. The lower elevated one could receive from higher elevated apps, but not send to them.
