Rich clients across intranets?

Hi,

I am a little lost here. I read somewhere that .NET
offered rich client interaction within Intranets (and
presumably within Internets clients as long as they
contain the .NET framework).

By rich clients I of course mean all the nice
Windows.Forms GUI stuff. My understanding is that
applications using this GUI could run within Internet
Explorer.

Am I totally wrong here? Did I misinterpret?

Thanks,
Juan Dent
 
Hello Juan,

Thanks very much for posting here.

After reviewing your question, I think you misunderstand some points here.

Generally speaking, in .NET programming, we could divide application into windows forms application and web forms
application. Windows forms application likes typical Win32 GUI application. Web forms application runs in IE like asp
applications before. Windows forms applications runs in depends of IE. In order to run windows forms application on the
system, we need to install .NET framework first. Howver, for web forms app, what we need is only a browser.

For details, please refer to http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/vbcon/html/vboriCreatingApplicationsInVBVCs.asp?
frame=true.

Please post here if you have anythink unclear.
