Message: [QUOTE="Michael Bredbury, post: 4287783"] There could be anything from 1 to 100 users at any one time using the applications, so I do not want to run the applications on the server. I need to run the applications on the client side so the user's computer is used. I have had a lot of experience with automation before, so I know how much work is involved, and you are correct, there is a lot of work needed to do this. I do not have any ASP.NET experience though, and I am uncertain how to go about writing this using Visual Studio.NET 2002. I have had success with creating an ActiveX DLL in VB6 which automates the applications on the client side, the only option I needed to set in the browser was ‘Download Unsigned ActiveX controls', but I had to use the HTML editor in VS.NET and type in the code which is clunky, but it worked. I guess my question now is, should I stick with the ActiveX DLL written in VB6 and use the HTML editor, or is there another technology I can make use of such as the ASP.NET Web Services, that will do the same job as the ActiveX DLL? Also, as I understand it, ASP.NET basically runs everything server side and would be of any use? Regards Mike Bredbury. [/QUOTE]
