How to put an executable file on the site build with asp.net?

[RickDee]

Hi.
I have a simple exe build using C#. For simplicity sake, it is just a simple
"Hello World" exe program which has a form, a button and when pressed, pop
up a message say "Hello World". Everyone see that b4, right?
ok. Now I create a page using ASP.NET 2.0. I would like to "host" ( is this
the right word ? ) that exe file on the web page and when user come to my
page, he/she can see the application there and when he/she click the button,
the "Hello World" message pops up.
I have been trying to look for similar solution in the internet, but yield
no result.
Please help.
Thanks
Regards

I think you want to investigate the ClickOnce feature:

Ken Cox,

After reading few articles regarding this. I don't think they are what I am
looking for.
What I wanted is how do I run the simple "Hello World" exe file "inside" the
IE browser.
This "Hello World" should run on the server rather than on client machine.
For example, I create a simple web page using Visual Web Development and the
page has just one single button. Once user click on the button, the "Hello
World" form will appear "INSIDE" the IE browser. This "Hello World" form has
a button and a label controls in it. When user click on the button, it will
then write the text "Hello World" to the label control. Bare in mind that I
wrote this "Hello World" program in C# and it is a windows application
project.
What you have show me is mostly article on smart client.
Please help.
Thanks
Regards

Hi RickDee,

As far as I know, it is not possible for us to achieve this. The exe
program has to be run at client side with current .NET framework. Or we
have to rewrite the whole program into an ASP.NET project.
