Remoting .Net

Question

Hello

just looking for some advice really on how i should go about a project. Any help would be appreciated.

I have an application written in C# which accesses a mysql DB, it basically a reporting system keeps track of who is in work on what day etc. Has some options to print reports etc.

What i need to do is write a small app that can be installed on a seperate computer but uses the methods from the other application. Basically i just want this app to be use the print options on the other application and check whether the other app is currently running (there is a table in the database that has a flag when people are using the DB).

From what i can gather the .Net remoting is the best way to go about this?

Anyone know any smaple apps or good articles on the subject area, or any experinces on this kind of app ?

thanks in advance
