I see - you were spamming the site.

You need to explain what you're doing. You can't launch an exe from a web page.

This is just an example.

   {<br />
       Process P = new Process();<br />
       P.StartInfo.FileName = "C:\\windows\\notepad.exe";<br />
       P.Start();<br />
   }

You can launch EXE, no problem. But it will be launched on the server and not on the client machine. So what's the use ?

Does your third party software provide any API for that ? if yes you can change the Size of GUI.

The third party API is irrelevant, if he launches another app, he's going to use ShellExecute or Process.Start.

I am Thankfull for ur response.

Here I am facing 2 Problems.

1. From my ASP.Net web application I am calling an exe using javascript.
Here is my code.

var h;
   h=new ActivexObject("wscript.shell");
   h=run("c:\\sample.exe /v") ;
   h=null;

So I am able to run it on client side. But as it is a third exe I am unable to set its location, size attributes. I pleed ur help in this regard.

2. In some other application I need to call a third party exe from my windows application. I am completely new to these C APIs and using dlls in applns, so suggest whate are the APIs to be used in what manner. Where from do I get this information.

I feel sorry for confusing you,

Thank U all,
kiran

1 - AFAIK, you can't set size and other attributes via JS.
2 - You can use Process class and call Process.Start(). It allows you to control how the targeted exe should run.

The best way create Diffrent Skin and Css File [ Theme ] and apply them runtime based on selection of color and font.

hi,

Have any method that can retrieve record from database then export it to Excel file(the function that set the width of each field is needed)

Have any idea....

Christian Graus19-Jun-08 20:12

The server can do this. ASP.NET will not be involved in the process tho. It will be code that uses the Excel libraries, and will require excel on the server.

When you download the Microsoft tools for Office, so you can do this, it will come with samples.

Hi,
I didnt come across any such method ? But you can acieve it using this code.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
string s = "select * from person";
DataSet ds = GetDataSet(s);
GridView1.DataSource = ds;
GridView1.DataBind();
Response.ContentType = "application/ms-excel";
Response.AddHeader("Content- Disposition", "inline;filename=ExcelFile.xls");
------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am not convince with Christian Graus answer.
Excel is optional at Server. But it is required at Client Machine. If it is not installed
at Client Machine, user cannot display the excel file, but he can download.

The original post said " export it to Excel file(the function that set the width of each field is needed)"

Christian is quite correct, to do this you need Excel installed on the server. What you are proposing is to display the data as Excel in a web page - not the same thing, but a viable work around as long as the fiel does not need writing to the server for some reason.
