QUESTION POSED ON: 10 August 2003
Is there a way to run following code from a Web page? 
ProcessStartInfo i = new ProcessStartInfo("myexe.exe", "-arg1 -arg1 -others");
Process p = new Process();
p.StartInfo = i;
p.Start();

>
EXPERT RESPONSE
You can make the call more compact with:

Process.Start ("myexe.exe", "-arg1 -arg1 -others"); That is actually starting the process (as well as your code). I suppose you're expecting a command/exe window to appear. That's not going to happen from an ASP.NET application. Read a previous answer about that. However, your process (exe) has a chance to do its work and return.
