Converting Website to 'Moveable' Application
Hi,
I'm currently working with a 'classic ASP' intranet site which uses a SQL server and am looking for possible ways to market it as an application for certain medical fields. Where would be a good place to start with this? Thanks for any help, Louis ll wrote on 19 nov 2007 in microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.general:

Do you want to "move" your application to a Web server on the Internet that you control or to the intranet Web servers of your customers? Or do you want a fully portable application that doesn't require a Web server? To do this approach you could convert the SQL Server database to SQL Server Express (or MS-Access) and the ASP pages to an HTA.

Will look into these options. It's a little trickier when you want to merge several pages into a single HTA. A word of caution -- the logic in your ASP pages resides on the Web server and is not exposed to the client; however, with an HTA they have the code. One approach to "securing" some of the application would be to require an Internet connection to your Web server to perform some aspects of the app. |
