I have an ASP/SQL project that we are looking to port to .Net. At this
point, much of the functionality is handled using DHTML and RDS. We have
been looking to change over to something like a DLL that is displayed in IE.
I have seen some writeups that indicate that windows forms can be displayed
in IE, but I can't find anything to confirm this or to tell me how to do it.
Can anyone help me out here?

TIA
Ron L

It's called no-touch deployment,

I have built a simple application in VB.Net and (I thought) followed the
directions in the first link, but when I browse to the exe file, I get the
following error:

CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of
HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:

Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentException: Invalid directory on URL.Do
you have any ideas of what is happening and what I need to do to fix it? I
am running XP SP2 and the web server is on my development machine.TIARon

Hi Ron,

Difficult to say what the problem might be, here are some good sites
with detailed info on No-Touch Deployment and troubleshooting info.

I am trying this using an XP Pro machine. Do you have any idea if this
might be a limitation of the version of IIS?

Thanks,
Ron L
