Re: ASP.NET and Executables

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

You can either make an ActiveX control or use a Windows WSH call like this:

function callExe() {
var myShell = new ActiveXObject( "WScript.shell" );
myShell.run( '"mycommand.exe", ... some other parameters are here...);
}

In either case you will have to rely on the user to allow a special security
to your site.

I hope that someone can answer this. I work in a call center, and
we are upgrading some of our systems. I need to find out if there
is a way for an ASP.NET page to call and execute an EXE file on the
local machine. Our new dialing platform is web-based and no longer
client-side. Some of our applications use a custom digital
recording solution which I need to call an executable to start.

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

Thank you
