Several Questions

Vincent

1. In my web application, can I call another exe
application ?
eg. when user click a button, a.exe will be executed

2. If the web page has two frames, can I control them in
asp.net ?
ie. control the page displaying in the frame

3. Can I call DTS ?

4. Can I save as a crystalreport as pdf and directly
print it when user click a button in my web application ?

Thank you very much for your help

Vincent,

1. In my web application, can I call another exe application ?
eg. when user click a button, a.exe will be executed

If you call a .exe from a web server the .exe will be executed on the
web server not the client machine.

You would need to use an active x control in order to execute a .exe

2. If the web page has two frames, can I control them in asp.net ?
ie. control the page displaying in the frame

Yes, I've done this myself. You may use javascript on the client side to
refer to one frame from another:

document.[framename].location='http ://msdn.microsoft. com'

You may also add that javascript dynamically to the page using various
page object's Attributes methods.

3. Can I call DTS ?

I've actually done this myself. SQL server was recently locked down a
bit more to make calling a DTS remotely more difficult. I ended up using a
serviced component to do so. If you need advice on exactly how to do this
feel free to email me (Anyone).

4. Can I save as a crystalreport as pdf and directly
print it when user click a button in my web application ?

Yes, but you won't be able to print the saved file, you will be able to
send the user a pdf and they may print it using the normal pdf interface.

I haven't done a few of these things myself, but I'm pretty certain of my
answers. Anyone who knows differently or has a little more detail please
help us out.

Thanks,

Vincent,

I thought I'd post the same reply as I sent you by email here in the forum
in case anyone else wanted to know how to run a DTS package from their code.

I placed the information on my web site in the code library so others may
benefit from it also. Just go to www.aboutfortunate.com the title is: "Run a
SQL Server 2000 DTS Package from a web service". If you set the category
option to: "Web or Windows" it should show up as the first entry in the
datagrid.

Again, if you have questions about it, don't hesitate to email me.

(This is a long one.)

Sincerely,

Justin

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
