Okay, I am new to ASP.NET. I created a financial calculator using VB.NET. My question is how I can integrate in ASP.NET page. I work in a call centre environment, where we use predictive dialers. We have started a new campaign and have to use this calculator over web browser.

 
It depends on how you've engineered the application. If you have not separated the business logic from the interface (putting code into independant classes) you may want to do so.

If you have the business classes, all you need to do is build a Web-Based UI to utilize the functionality.
 
Thanx for your reply.

Actually I have managed to design a web form with all the financial calculation in code behind the page. It is running fine on my machine. Now I have to send this web application to a contractor who will be running this campaign for us. How can I make them use this web form so that the actual calculation remains concealed? If I send over the complete folder, they can open the code in VS. Sorry, I am new to web development.

Thanks




 
You can also compile the code-behind and just send the (configured) .aspx file and .dll, but then the contractor couldn't edit the code-behind for any reason.

If you're worried about him getting at your source, I'd also look into obfuscation with, perhaps, Dotfucator Community Edition (comes with VS.NET) or something better. You'd be surprised how easy it is to decompile .NET source code.
 
I copied .aspx file and .dll file into a directory and creadted a virtual directory on my IIS server, but couldn't run the page. It cam with an error

Is the .dll in the bin folder of the directory? Did you remove the src attribute from the Page directive?
