Hi,

I am having two EXE's namely EXE1 and EXE2.

If I click a button in EXE1 I need to get the flag value from EXE2 so that I can proceed on EXE1.

Why? It sounds like a typical abuse.

Totally agree with Sergey. You need to provide more details otherwise.

I guess you are talking about IPC. In .NET world the most natural way how to let two processes to talk together would be WCF I guess.

We are using .Net 2.0 version so WCF is not possible.
Can you briefly explain.

If they are both executing at the same time on the same PC (or even on the same LAN segment) then the easiest way is probably just to use the Socket class[^] - the link includes an example.
