Launch .NET application through notification or windows messaging

[Andy]

Is there any way to launch a .NET application by issuing a windows
message?

I have two .NET applications, A and B.

A writes records to a database, and then issues a message that its
finished.
The message somehow causes application B to launch which then offloads
the records in the database to somewhere else.

What's the best windows technology to use to do this?

Delegates? Windows messaging? Is there anything else?

Delegates? Windows messaging? Is there anything else?

1) MS Windows Workflow Messaging
2) MS Windows Communication Foundation using Named Pipe or MS Message Queue
3) SQL Server 2005 and above, using SQL Server .NET CLR, Service Broker and
SQL Server queues.
