is there any solution for Executing Applications from WebForms?

[PeterSC]

Hi!
is there any solution for executing applications from webforms?
In my WebService I have:

[WebMethod()]
public void Start()
{
Process.Start("notepad.exe"
}

but this doesn't seem to do anything.

Any solution, please?
other form to do this?

Thanks.

Do you want your application to run at your web server or your client's machine???

i think you want your application running on your client's local machine. if so, you have to pass through your client's local machine security check first. you can do this only if your client have trusted you first. oh yeah, some correction (correct me if i'm wrong) :

the code you gave above, is a web service method. it seems that you want your web service to open a notepad program on your client's side. the code you give above won't do anything. if you want 'anycode' to run at your client's side, it should be an activex application. the code you gave above will be run on your web server, not on your client's side.

anyway, this is what in my opinion, correct me if i'm wrong ^0^
