How To Control a .NET EXE With .NET Client (Something Like Word Automation)

[Mark Overstreet]

I want to write a single instance application with one
main form that exposes an object model that that be
controlled via one or more applications on the same
machine. Basically an out-of-process server.

Similiar to how Microsoft Word or Excel Automation works
but a pure .NET version for both the application and the
client that is controlling it.

Any ideas on how this is accomplished in .NET? It was
really easy to do with Visual Basic 6.0 and ActiveX Exe
project types.

Thanks for any help.

Look at remoting.
