Hello,
So what it looks like you have to do is add networking to your application. The other side will need to have networking as well.
You would need to create a socket inside your code and connect to a listening port tha the application on the other side is listening to.
The two programs need a place where they would have to talk, so in this case the one that you have the URL for (which should indicate it already has networking). So you need to create a place in the program so that it connects to the URL(and possibly different port) so it can access the function.
Here is some simple socket code:

Imports System.Net.Sockets
Imports System.Net

Dim ip As String = URL
Dim tcpClient As New System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient
tcpClient.Connect(ip, sendport)
Dim networkStream As NetworkStream = tcpClient.GetStream()
networkStream.Write(send, 0, send.Length)
networkStream.Close()

Hope this helps,
Aia
