Hi,

You say PC's are connected via internet, but how ? Are they connected as if in same building so you can map a drive on the other ? If so then have a mapped drive and the data can be saved to drive on relevant PC.

If not, then install program on remote PC and get it to email results to first PC, which are then extracted, as and when.

If you have the appropriate rights to access the remote PC, and if that program is available through a share on that PC and if it is a stand-alone program (does not require components that are not installed on your PC then you should be able to execute the program by

\\computername\sharename\progname.exe

If the program is in a subfolder under the sharename then just add qualifiers to the path.

That's assuming you want to run the program on your computer. If you want to run it on the remote computer then you can use something like psexec to invoke it (a free sysinternals utility available from Microsoft).
