POP up On screen Windows Keyboard used touch screen devices

Hi all,

How to call the on screen windows keyboard in ASP.net web application.

Code i have tried but no result because it s Exe.

Please give me idea how to call in ASP.net using javascript?

progFiles = @"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\ink";

keyboardPath = Path.Combine(progFiles, "TabTip.exe");

Process.Start(keyboardPath);

Implementing a virtual keybord is very simple

Better to build virtual keyboard in asp.net itself instead using window one.

Thanks sachin for your code.

But need a OSKto popup.It's worked in asp.net web application ,changed the code little bit using javascript and called in the textbox control or button on click.
function launch keyboard()
{
var oShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application");
oShell.ShellExecute("C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Microsoft Shared\\ink\\TabTip.exe");
}
It will help someone.
