Calling a .NET Assembly from an ASP.NET page

[Kevin Spencer]

Do yoou mean that it calls a method of a class in an assembly? You may want
to make the method call run in a separate thread.

See the following MSDN article for an example:

Lookup asynchronous programming in the help for .NET Framework. There are
some examples, but you basically need to use BeginInvoke and provide a
callback so that your assembly method acts asynchronously.
