This can be done in many different ways. A windows service and remoting, as bruce suggested, is one of them. A simple text file and a program that looks for changes in it could be another. -- Gran Andersson _____ http://www.guffa.com -----------------------------------------------Reply----------------------------------------------- When the web site is accessed it could write some kind of a record to a local file or database. Then a local (separate) application could check this periodically and notify you when something of interest has changed. -- I hope this helps, Steve C.
