Anyone have sample of .net program and REXX calling each other? exchange data?

Which REXX?

I refer to "OOrexx" Object Rexx , from Source Forge, which I think should interface with other .net products

Open Object Rexx is not .NET product.

For example, like any other command you can call from REXX PowerShell, which is .NET scripting language.
As example I take a short powershell script for CSV-processing, which I posted in this thread:

I can execute it and process the result in REXX at usual way
rexx_ps.rex

[COLOR=#0000ff]/* execute command */[/color]
cmd

[COLOR=#0000ff]/* pull the powershell script results from REXX queue */[/color]

It works with ooREXX and Regina:

c:\Work>rexx rexx_ps.rex
1. powershell line: LOOK AT THE PROCESS 'PROC1' RUNNING ON SERVER 'SERVER1' ..
2. powershell line: LOOK AT THE PROCESS 'PROC2' RUNNING ON SERVER 'SERVER2' ..
3. powershell line: LOOK AT THE PROCESS 'PROC3' RUNNING ON SERVER 'SERVER3' ..
