Would you please tell me that some C# WebForm application (VS.NET 2002) can
run/call windows executable file such as notepad.exe (use Process.Start)? if
so how to do it.

Run notepad on the client or the server?

You cannot on the client , but if you wanted to on the server, what would be
the benefit since there is no person to interact with the application?
 
Hi,

You should give more details about what you want to do.

you can use Process.Start to run applications on the server ( given the
correct permissions ) it's just that nobody can interact with them

Hi,

Thanks for your help.

I want to do clicking some button to start application on client
WebForm(such as notepad or some DLL program). Is it possable? If so, How to
do it?

Hi,

No, it's not possible

the only possible solution I see here is that you use an ActiveX that in
turn load the application you want. You will have to code the activeX in
unmanaged code IIRC , there is no way of doing it using c# ( maybe I'm wrong
so take a look around )
