Its actually a Piece of SMS2003. The remote Gui. copies of it are located
on the client and on our network in general.. I can point to either..
Its not .net managed code, but I could make a virtual directory point to it.
Other than executing the client I have an example webpage from someone who
does exactly what I want to do, but its in asp, not asp.net so unless I can
figure out how to call his page and send values to it, I would have to
rewrite my entire web app using asp.
The Exe I want to execute is in exactly the same place on every client, so I
hope that makes it easier.
Can you point me to where on MSDN they discuss launching apps on the client.
I can't find it.. Thank you for all the help.

This is for an internal site of our company. The site is in the trusted
sites of the browsers that are using the site, so security should not be
anissue. There's not a VB command I can use?
No. To run an executable on a client's machine. You would first have
to load it onto the client's machine. Then execute it.
However, if the executable is .NET (managed) code, you could have a
link that points to the exe. Something like:
<a href="http://secureinternaldomain.com/myapp.exe">Run this App</a>
This is how a "Smart Client" application would run on a client
machine. There is lots of info on msdn.com if this is what you're
after.
