This content will be very unique and easy to monetize. One approach is to get cheap consultants to type it all in, but Id rather think out-of-the-box and get it to work as it is.
Im assuming (theoretically) you could have a heavy client application (java applets/flash/etc) running in the browser which would display the screen content and map user input (keyboard/mouse clicks) to the the windows application.
But does such an application exist? If so whats is the name of it? How does it scale? Any input is appreciated on this topic.
Thanks in advance.
Ive got several windows applications
I assume you mean that you have several Windows applications that you have developed yourself or have had developed for you, and to which you hold the necessary rights to do this?

This is what prompted me to ask the first question (above). Why would you need to have it typed-in? Assuming you created or acquired this material to use in your Windows applications, why not use or convert your existing digital media? (Database records, electronic documents, sound/image files - e.g. whatever "stuff" it is that comprises your content).

Sure. But they're expensive, clunky, and provide an awful user experience. They're most useful for extending corporate applications to a small number of off-site remote users. They're really not designed for nor suitable for providing access to a large number of users from the general public.
If you must, check out Citrix Systems as a starting point.
