Hello,
Is there a way to start a program on the client computer from an asp page?
I.E. The user clicks a button, and word starts up. (of course if they have
word on their comp.)
Thanks,

If the link downloads a .doc file and the user allows this (via configuration
or prompt), then sure.

Standard browser security settings prohibit this behavior.
One way around it would be to send the user a blank .DOC file, which it will
open in Word after the user accepts the prompt.

Thanks,
What I am trying to accomplish is the following:
I have an application that allows the user to draw a picture. What I am
looking for is, once the client download the program and installs it, when
they visit my web site and click on a button, that the program executes if
it is installed.
Simular to resident ActiveX controls used on other web sites like
PCPitstop.com
If I am not thinking right on this matter, how should I be thinking?
Thanks,
Chuck

With an activex control you could do this, because activex controls have
more privileges than standard javascript.

I have a vb6 control that allows for a person to scribble on an area on a
web page.
Most of the time the control does not work on peoples computers becuase of
their security setting.
Is there a way to make a button on the page that they can click that will
download the control and make it work whenever they go to the web page (so I
won't get all these security problems)?
I know how to put the button on the page and how to make it download, but I
am not sure if this will solve the problem and what file to have them
download and how it would get installed.
I have a cab file that contains the following files. If this is what is
needed how do you install it?
Msvbvm60.dll
MyControl.inf
MyControl.ocx
I am trying to find a work around to make this always work.
Thanks,
Chuck
