Running programs through the website

M

Mike O.

We currently have a company intranet setup that I designed using FP2002. We
have a training program for our agency managment system that new users run
on a local machine. The program comes on cd and has to be installed on each
machine and is not a networkable program. So when installing the training
program it creates a directory and writes to the registry also. What I want
to do is, is to install this program to the server that the intranet resides
on and have users go on the intranet website and click on a link to run the
program. The program requires the cd to be in the cdrom drive to access all
the training modules also. How can I setup the website to run the program
from the server but show all the screens and options from the users
computers? I installed the program to the server and in FP2002 I provided a
link to the executable but it gives me a message concerning installing some
files to the local computer. Thanks in advance.

Most likely if this software is designed to be not
networked, you most likely will be violating the licensing
agreement for the software. I would try technical and/or
customer support for the program and see if there is a
networkable version.
