      It may be helpful if you tell us what you are trying to achieve. And no, you can't (nor should you attempt to) "place" an .exe in CView.

        You asked this question yesterday, and the answer is still 'no'. You cannot put an executing program into a CView; read the documentation on CView, and Windows in general, for more information.

          If an exectuatble supports automation, then I think you can access features from that executable in your application. Applications like Word, Excel, Internet Explorer supports automation. Following link would be useful for you http://support.microsoft.com/kb/238611[^]
