Is it possible for me to throw an event from one application and catch it from another?

Hi All.

 

Is it possible for me to throw an event from one application and catch it from another? (Both the applications running on the same PC).

 

I have developed an addin that tells which file is being displayed on the VS2005 IDE. So, it will throw an event as soon as some other file becomes active. It has to send this file's name to another application. Can the other application get this information from the event that was thrown?

 

Thanks in advance
