Maybe I don't understand your problem clearly, but it seems if you have a program written in Java and you are trying to run an ASP script, you need to make a call (shell or whatever) to your browser with the fully qualified URL (http://myserver/myscript.asp)

Since ASP is all run server-side and requires a browser of some sort to view the results of the script, you can't just call an ASP function without running the script on your webserver.

Maybe if you explain what you are trying to do with ASP, i can help more.

**DISCLAIMER: I know jack-squat about Java; other than JavaScript, which is completely different. so I may be way off my rocker here because my programming experience is in VB**

You have got correctly. i am trying to call an ASP script from a java application. You could be right that it could be quite tedious while setting up its configuration.

alright, here is what i wanted.

i have an ASP script that was already written to send emails to people. Hence, would like to connect my java application to the ASP script so that i would not have to re-write everything in java.

Anyway, i am prepared to write a java application that would send emails to people instead since it is almost impossible to call asp from java, isnt it?

:o

Could you please show me by examples and explantion, or a good reference of how to send emails from java application so that i may start from somwhere. also, complete my job too.

;) thank you so much.

God bless:D
