Calling a Local Application from ASP.net?

Hello All,

I have been using ASP for quite a while.. but, I am starting to do some work
in ASP.net .... My question is.....

If I am running ASP.net files from IIS through the web ... OR Locally (like
..hta files) .... can I have my asp file LAUNCH an application that is already
installed on the computer I am sitting at??

Thanks...

using javascript and an hta you can launch client applications.

segment

include ref to windows scripting host
<object id= 'wshost'
classid='clsid:72C24DD5-D70A-438B-8A42-98424B88AFB8'></object>

then use it
<img onclick=wshost.run(""calc.exe"")>
