Calling LOCAL Application from ASP.net

[smook]

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...

Not without the user's permission, meaning the security settings have to be low enough for the browser to even prompt the user and then the user has to say yes.

It's not typically a good idea to even attempt this as there's too many things that get in the way.
