Hi Experts,

I know  my question does not belongs to this forum, But it is related to SAP. I am developing a desktop application by using Adobe AIR and I am using web services to get the SAP data in AIR. My requirement is that, How to integrate other desktop applications (ex. calc ) with adobe AIR. Please help, if there are any adobe flex guru's out there.

Hi Shiva Shankar,

Obviously an old post but thought I'd reply just incase anyone else wanted to do the same thing.

With an Adobe AIR desktop app you have the ability interact with native applications via the ActionScript NativeProcess class. The app needs to be packaged with the Native Installer (e.g. exe file for Windows) to be able to communicate with native apps.

There is an Adobe DevNet article covering the basics here and a link to the NativeProcess class here

Cheers,

Stephen
