I hope someone can enlighten me in figuring out on how can I run a VB exe from ASP page which will return a value and this value will be passed back to the ASP page . <br><br>Thanks

You'll have to make a component for that. ActiveX something. <p> <br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>

Create an activeX control to run Serverside(or if you want users to interact with it, which would require IE of course) , you can either create an ActiveX dll, or a ActiveX Control(like the dll only allows a visual interface) <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

hmmm - you can actually have forms - callable from a browser - in a dll you know. Chap who works with me showed me the other day, didn't look difficult. Have a poke around the .dll project types, shout if you can't figure it out and I'll dig up the example project.<br> <p>Mike<br><a href=mailto:Mike_Lacey@Cargill.Com>Mike_Lacey@Cargill.Com</a><br><a href=
