Launch application/executable at server

[tsriharto]

Does anybody knows how to launch an application/executable (.exe)at the web server using vbscript...?

Using coldfusion, it can be easily done using <cfexecute> tag.

There is nothing in the ASP object hierarchy do that. I think you need to write a COM component (aka ActiveX in VB) to do it for you. Not a simple task.

kor is right.
you can get a component (for free) that will allow you to execute DOS and Windows based Applications, though.

go to

http://www.serverobjects.com

It's called ASPExec. I've never used it, but I've heard about it.

This should help you out.
