Running application with command line arguments from IE

[Mohammad A Gdeisat]

Hi everybody I am trying to create a hyperlink that is used to run a local application and passes some arguments, however, IE always complains that it did not find the requested file and this seems to be because it does not distinguish between the filename and the arguments. here is my hyperlink: <a href='file:///C:/Users/Mohammad/Documents/Visual Studio 2005/Projects/SpeakingExam/SpeakingExam/bin/Debug/SpeakingExam.exe SID=167 EID=335'>Take Eaxam</a> If I do not supply any parameters the program runs fine, but I am having a trouble running it with parameters. Thanks for the help

And ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation Mohammad Gdeisat

I have not done this from a web app, but you can use the ProcessStartInfo class and the Process class in code behind to open local processes (and send it command args). Have a look at ProcessStartInfo[^] on MSDN.
