Hello all, It is a security risk to be able to execute something on the remote computer from a BROWSER. Calling an EXE it is in the same category as DDE and OLE action. This is the main reason I am an advocate of "ARS client". A clickonce of "ARS client" would be a better idea. Daniel Condrea

You may be able to do some things with Flash, but I'm not an expert with that product. You didn't indicate what you are trying to accomplish with the exe; there may be other approaches that make more sense that going the applet/activex route.

This is all fine on the user client but obviously (and as the manual clearly states) it does not work in the Mid-Tier. Anyway tried some simple alternative which DOES WORK? This is a 7.1 Patch 4 server and Mid-Tier.
