I've spent an hour looking for a clean way to do this, and am comming up short.

I have two applications, I wrote both. App #1 has a form that needs to be opened by App #2. Whats the cleanest way to do this?
 
Are they two different executables or are they two different forms in the same solution? Not much information there to go on.
 
To avoid threading issues and other complexities, and need to do just simple things, try using the System.IO.FileSystemWatcher class. It will allow you to use a file to communicate information to your other application.
