Is it possible to embed an exe application (like mspaint.exe) in a Visual studio C# application?

Question

Is it possible to open an exe application (like mspaint.exe) in a Visual studio C# application and place it in a container with in the application? I am developing an application using Visual Studio 2008 C# that should display two exe applications in the bottom half part of the screen. I added a panel in my form to display the applications and added code to open the exe applications but the applications are opening in their own window outside of the panel. Is there a way to embed the applications to look like part of the main application? Or at least control the location where they should open by splitting the screen or something….. Any suggestion is welcome.

Answer 2

in case you have geared up the appliance in .internet 3.5 as a residing house windows varieties (WPF) app then you definately could desire to evaluate changing it to a SilverLight application which could be downloaded from a internet site. in any different case confident you will could desire to re-write the app in ASP.internet. in case you wrote the appliance in a nicely designed way (i.e the code that does many of the artwork is in separate DLL assemblies) then even re-writing it in ASP.internet will possibly not take too long.

Joseph,



You could call paint.exe from inside your application, or create a simple program:
