Hi

Is it at all possible to create a .Net application (windows application)

that hosts another (calls another winapp) and makes it visible on / within the new winapp?

Like the web browser control allows web applications to be shown within a windows application form, is it possible to have a control where one can load other windows applications in ? like a virtual desktop?

Bye

No, the web browser is a control and would be hosted within the same process. Two applications must exist in different processes (and therefore different threads) and therefore one can't be a child of the other. The only thing you could do is host one application in another desktop (hidden) and perform periodic screen captures to display it within the other app (not to mention capture and redirect mouse/keyboard events...). None of which I would recommend.
