Re: Run VB6 .exe on server from a remote machine on same network; db is SQL Server 2000



Do you mean to run a program from a remote server on a local PC, or run a
program on a remote PC and control it locally?

For the first option you must install all the runtimes and the SQLServer
client on the local machine, as you do that you might as well install the
program at the same time and avoid the network traffic of running a program
across the network. Don't imagine that by having the program and the
database on the same server you will reduce traffic, in fact it will be
worse as all the work is performed on the local PC while all the data is
remote.

For the second option any remote operation software will do the job,
PCAnywhere, Remote Desktop, Citrix (overkill perhaps).
