Be able to call a dos program

[SK]

I was wondering if its possible to call a program
thru' asp pages. If yes, then how?

For eg. I want to call abc.exe how can I do so?

What if abc.exe is standalone program?

Thank you,

GUI app, the GUI will not display anywhere.

Ray,

Thank you very much for the reply!
Is there any way by which I can launch my abc.exe
application on local computer?

If I put it on network drive and then by clicking
on the link, it should launch from the network drive
and then users should be able to use it.

Thank you,
SK

I'm sure there are other ways to run the command shell, but this freebie has
always worked for me:

At that point, it's not an ASP issue and it's just a browser thing. The
user would be prompted to download or open the file like any other download
of an exe file. (Or only having save as an option in some browsers.)
