button click handle function.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Try
'Download the assembly from a web server over HTTP
Dim sLocation As String
sLocation = _
"HTTP://sha-vphuang-03/SmartClientDll.dll"
Dim formAsm As [Assembly] = [Assembly].LoadFrom(sLocation)
'Get the Form from the assembly
Dim formtype As Type = formAsm.GetType("SmartClientDll.Form1")
'Create an instance of the Form
Dim FormObj As Object
FormObj = Activator.CreateInstance(formtype)
'Cast it to a Form object to enable early binding and show the
form
Dim Form1 As Form = CType(FormObj, Form)
Form1.Show()
Catch exc As Exception
MsgBox(exc.ToString)
End Try

The Bigger Better Basic tour spoke to us about "smart clients." It seemed
intriguing, especially the web-launched executables that downloaded the
required assemblies under the hood - that was fascinating.
However, these one day presentations do not usually have time to show you
how you would do these things. So I looked around on MSDN, but couldn't
findanything that described, in practical terms, how you would do this - just
the usual "architect" stuff (for those folks who don't write code but are
incharge of those who do. ;-)
Are there any examples on MSDN, even small simple ones, of how this works?
Ican really see this being useful!
R.
