Controlling Windows Application From Web

[Seda Ozulku]

I don't have much information about .Net. May be it must be a silly
question.

I have Windows Application running at the server. I need to Access the
program functions ( like at given time program sends mail to customer or you
can manually select customer and send it ) from web. Why web? I dont want
to install client applications to the all user... And Clients dont have
access to server via Terminal and because of th e the Server location it's
far away from us.

This is the scenario :

1-There ise Windows Application running on the server. Server is located
withing company.

2- Some Company user need to accces to program functions (not all the
functions). Company user dont have access to computer directly ('cos of
location) or by Terminal ( security).

3- I want design a web Interface to access some function of the program.
User login and do what the user have access to.

Thank yo for you replies....

Hello Seda,

Does the application expose any interfaces, or does it have only UI? If it
has only UI, it will not be easy to access it via a web page.
Also, please note that if you expose an application to multiple users, you
introduce the risk of a race condition, i.e. requests from two or more
users at the same time. The application should be able to queue them or
process them in parallel.
