hi,
We have a two tier client server application written with Powerbuilder
as the front end. Going forward, we want to move the system to a ASP.NET
based application. However, the first phase of the migration path is decided
to move only the UI to ASP.NET, keeping the rest of the application
architecture intact. This means, the ASP.NET application need to invoke a
method written in a powerbuilder component.
Could anybody please share the most effective way of calling powerbulder
code from an ASP.NET application? Is there any best practise for doing the
same?
I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but if
anybody could help me in this, that'll be of great help.
Thanks.

Don't know if it is going to help you:

Try this.. c# though.

Also, you might look at the dotnet.datawindow from sybase. It is an implementation of the datawindow control that can be used in
Net. They are releasing a version 2.0 this month that will work with vs2005.
