Do you really think that anyone reading this could possibly give you any kind of a decent answer?

Please check the updated question...Kindly reply the updated query

The general answer is it depends.

If you already have a web application in your LAN then all you need to do is open the web ports on your external WAN to your internal web server.

If you have a non-web application then you will have to rewrite to a web technology, and there is no easy way for this.

You can open "remote desktop protocol" also to allow external users to connect via the WAN and use your application, this a quick fix which will not scale.

It is lan based Desktop application..
Hi,

You have not mention about is your LAN based application is Desktop or Web. but in case it is Web then there is nothing to do more. just get some hosting package online and publish there.

If your LAN based application is Desktop based then you have couple of choice. if you have used Class based architecture then you can use some of the Business code and DataBase level code for use. But at the end you need to create Web Forms and it's logic from scratch. you can not convert your Windows Forms into Web forms. You also need to figure out all the local variable that persist the value for you in your desktop application, As in Web application you need to use Session/Cookies/ViewState/QueryString/HiddenField to persist your variable value. This is not just it, you also need more precaution at every steps,

So the answer is you can not directly convert your windows application into Web application.

Thanks
