passing value from windows application to another one

Question

How to pass value from a Windows desktop application to another Windows desktop application?

I'm stuck right now. I don't want to build two different forms in one Winform application.

I need two different Winform application that communicates with each other, one of them send value to other one and the receiver processes the data. Anyone knows how to do that?

I'd be grateful if you can help.

If you are familiar with Remote Objects using Services (.Net Remoting), then your two application can communicate using this method.
