Normally not allowed. Assuming you provided the EXE to the customer, you
could always write it to be an ActiveX control that is installed on the
local machine.
It would be cool... but hackers would go wild. Can't you just imagine the
havoc that would cause if it were allowed?
You could work around this in another way. You could write a seperate
client app that accesses your web site, determines what you need from the
site, and opens a local app. That would work. The client app would have to
be installed on the client machine, of course, and the user would start it
instead of their browser, so the user will have given you permission to
start an app locally.

Hi,
I have a webform, The link on the webform should call the exe program
installed on the client machine when the user click the link on the
webform. It should run the exe installed on the client machine. I am not able to
run the client application from my webform.
Any suggestions or link would be great help.
Thanx
Prasad
