Making other computer run apps over network

[Derek]

Hi. Is there a way I can make another computer on our network run an application? 4 ex If I want Computer2 to run say Windows Explorer by clicking a button on MY pc.

There mustn't be an app installed on his computer which secretly recieves the message and runs Windows Explorer.

Tx

you need to create a similar application...
- but when you connect the other machine
- catch some "messages" that will be the commands
for example
EXECUTE C:\WINDOWS\NOTEPAD.EXE


i think that this is simple and you have understand the idea, it is not a mistery it is simple to do.

Tx, but this is just not what I want to do. There mustn't be another app running on his pc to catch a message.
