Greetings, I have an aspx page where on it is a link that calls my
smartclient (a windows form) that opens up. When the user is done in
the form, he or she hits a button that saves data and closes the
form. I want the smartclient to call the opened browser (IE6 and
maybe 7 down the line) and refresh the aspx page. The page contains a
datagrid control that gets populated on the page's load event. Does
anyone know how you can do that? Is there an Windows API call that I
can use to tell the web browser window to refresh? Any help would be
great.
Thanks, Mike

If the smart-client hosts the web-client (via WebBrowser) then you can
do a lot of automation in both directions. If not, then not so much
AFAIK.

Mike,
I know very little about Windows API to control browsers neither I know much
about smartclients. But I can offer a general work around. You can exchange
data or commands between any processes by sharing a common resource, for
example a file.
When the form is done, it can write a file in a preset location. On the
browser side, you can start a javascript timer that will check if the file
is present or not. If it is, the form must have finished and the browser can
refresh itself.

Eliyahu,
That sounds great in principle, but why would the browser be allowed to
access the local filesystem from a web page it requested from a remote
location, other that to read or write cookies?

Peter,
I assume the remote site will be granted a special security anyway since it
will have to start a windows form application. If so, accessing the local
file system can be allowed too.

Can you tell me if it is possible to use the PropertyGrid
control in a SmartClient deployed through IE, without

The error I get is

Hi:
I got a very strange problem while using my dotNet SmartClient exe in IE.
(One Click Deployment.)
What we did are
1) a C# dotNet exe, very small, just for testing. around 492K.
2) put the exe under IIS application folder
3) make the server URL full trust on client IE.
4) Make a html page which contain the URL above.
While client the url in IE, sometime it work but sometime doesn't.

Is a .Net app automatically a "SmartClient" app? If I build a frontend

Good morning,
Hope someone out there can help.
I have 5 PCs that hit my intranet server. All 5 will run the smartclient
from the webpage.
One of the PCs does not seem to be reading the apps config file.
This is where I have a number of keys with SQL CMDs as the values.
It gives no errors but the result is always a empty string.
3 of the other PCs have the .Net Dev IDE installed on them. The 4th not sure
if the IDE is on it or not.
