      i assume this is on windows. a named pipe would be ideal. more than that this becomes a programming question/answer. not suitable for this forum. Quick Answer[^] is more appropriate for your question.

        Have a look at self-hosted wcf services, maybe using a named pipe or netTCP binding.

          You could send something over a socket. But all that really depends on the scenario.

                      I've been poking around with XML RPC, though it's not part of .NET (if that's what you're using) but I found some free client/server implementations of it. I ended up looking at it because the client was using Python, and support for XML RPC is built into Python. Well, that's my inflated 2c. ;) Marc

                          Assuming they are distributed over a wide area; man in a van; that's what you need. Basically, get one person to type the message on one machine and save it to a USB key. The man then drives to the other location where the USB key is connected to the other computer and the message is taken from it. Job done, near instantaneous (as long as you heavily redefine near instantaneous) and you've provided gainful employment for somebody who might otherwise have no work.

                            MSMQ can be a huge pain to configure with public queues. You might want to look into something like zeroMQ[^] though.

                                      1. Type up the XML in wordpad. 2. Print out the XML document. 3. Place it on a wooden table. 4. Take a picture using a digital camera. 5. Download the picture onto the other computer. Note: Crap! We've lost the textual information. 6. Write a program to decode text from a digital photo. 7. Decode the text and store as an XML document. 8. Finished!
