How to add an application into a form?

I have a vendor application (exe) and I like to add it into my application. Something like a MDI application holding other application. I found System.Diagnostics.Process class, but I can't add the app into my app.

Thanks in advance

    It is possible and takes a bit of work and P/Invoking and doesn't always work... but it is possible.

    Try this tutorial.

    Appreciated



  • Sam Perumal

    Well, You are right Brendan - it's not always work! it's only works with IE and nothing else.

    Thanks

    You can't add another application to your application unless that application is exposing a API to integrate with it.

    What you can do from your application is that , you can open another application from your app using Process.Start(....)

    Thanks Ali, the application doesn't expose any API, but I think it's possible, I just don't know way to work around this.
