how do I launch a windows form from a web page. For instance, when you click a button the windows form should launch and the web page should continue to run in the background without the user seeing it (this is there a way to keep the web page alive after the windows form app launch)

Is there a way to do that in asp.net webpage? As they want us to keep the toolbar and have those buttons if possible, but I wasn't sure if a webpage can launch them or not.

View 1 RepliesWe have a company intranet and the powers that be think it would be nice to have a collection of icons/links representing the applications that most reps use (Outlook, Excel, few other apps).
The idea would be that if the application is installed, clicking the link/icon would launch the application on the client machine.
Anyone ever had a requirement like that and been successful implementing it?
Wanted to reach out to everyone before I go back and say no.
I have built a web page that does a complex processing, and I realized recently that I need to convert it to a windows service running at the background and keeping the web page for monitoring and initiating the service.
The service will process some files, and provides information messages to the user.
I'm not sure how to implement the link between the windows service and the web site, but i was trying to avoid using MSMQ to connect both application together.
I'm trying to hit my intranet website and get it to run a simple sql query as the windows user I'm logged in as.
When I debug through Visual Studio, everything works great. When I hit the webserver though, I get an error from sqlconnection saying, "ERROR:Login failed for user 'YOUR_DOMAINYOUR_WEBSERVER_NAME'."

Is the above possible? Basically i need it as I am creating a site where users can upload files to a shared network drive which is secure and has a system account
When a user clicks on upload file, If possible I would like the page to automatically kind of log in with the system account, copy the files and then log off. I know I could achieve something similar mapping a drive but would prefer not to do that for these reasons;
- Security risk if the mapped drive for some reason isnt removed by the code
- User may not have the drive letter free.

View 2 RepliesI am hosting a Windows User Control in my web page using <object> tag. Everything works fine when the control is outside the updatepanel and is independent of other web controls but when I move the control inside the update panel, it doen't load the user control properly.
<object id="myBrowser" classid="http:MyBrowser.dll#MyBrowser.UserControl1" height="20" width="400" VIEWASTEXT></object>
why it doesn't render the control properly and what can I do to fix it?
I tried moving the user control outside the update panel but since this user control is shown/hidden dynamically and is rendered based on other web controls which are inside an Update Panel, the user control is not shown at all.

View 1 Repliesthere are a form in a page like this :

how we can request that form dynamically and make it in my webform ?
I am very interesting in the dynamic language runtime of .net, and saw IronRuby/IronPython is built on top of it. I cannot find some example which utilize the dynamic of Ruby/Python from within c#, which is what I realy interested.
I saw videos from Microsoft which call JavaScript from within Silverlight using the dynamic of c# 4, just wondering how easy it is to call Ruby/Python in web/windows form? I know that Umbraco have a python implementation somewhere, and it is possible, but not sure how?
I have a ASP.NET website which uses the standard ASP.NET Login Control for authenticating users. The user information is stored in a SQL Server database which is not accessible from client side. I want to write a standalone desktop windows form application which requires user to login with the same credential (username and password) used on the website. For the web-based form authentication, it's simple just to use the login control. Howerver, I have no idea for how to deal with the login for windows form application. My naive idea is to create a login web service which windows form application can utilize.

I have an app that outputs a gridview to excel spreadsheet and adds a couple of rows for accounting. I'm trying to launch the spreadsheet after its saved off, using
Code:
excelApp.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs(filename);
excelApp.ActiveWorkbook.Saved = true;
excelApp.Quit();
var si= new ProcessStartInfo {FileName = filename, UseShellExecute = true}; //hits here and crashes
Process.Start(si);
it hits the marked line and crashes that it cant find the file, its automatically saving it to the documents folder on my local machine, and i cant seem to get it to save elsewhere (i have a data directory in the project i use for the other file types) that i would like to save to if possible, but it seems that if you have office installed it don't like it. i could always copy the file from documents to the datastore, but that's difficult.
how do i launch excel application using the file i just saved off to show to the bean crunchers?
