How do we deploy a linked Web-Windows Application using Click Once deployment

I have aproject which contains a website for Online Test Administration and also a windows application which runs a test engine. Now I want to deploy them in such a way that my website has a link to invoke my windows test engine. Also wanna make sure that My website transfers the session data to the windows application, i.e some way through which i may be able to read session data from my windows test engine. I want to use Click Once Deployment technique to deploy the windows part of my project. Kindly suggest a solution

You can deploy the Windows application as an online-only app, and have the web project invoke a link to the application file. If you deploy it as online-only, you can pass information with query parameters (depending on how much info we're talking about).

How to retrieve query string information

If you're talking about more info that you can pass in a query string, then you should write a web service and have the windows application call it to get the informatino it needs.
