Start windows form from Web form

[fredodman]

Hi everyone!

OK, this is my problem. I tried to find a way to easier update categories and sub-categories in a database for a friend of mine. She has a website that uses this db but has no way of managing the data so to speak. I created a small windows form which populates a treeview with the stuff she wants and all is working so far. Here is my problem though, is there a way to start this form from her website if I uploaded it or do I have to put all my stuff in a new web form. I might use the incorrect terms here but I thought it would be nice to start this little stand alone app from her site if possible. Any thoughts?

windows forms and web forms are 2 different GUIs. much the same that linux and windows are different OS. If you want the webpage to act like the windows form then you need to design html/js/css to behave the same (similar) way as the desktop prototype.

Thanks Jason. I gave the idea up and are now trying to put it on the site instead.
