If you're talking about a desktop app then this implies that the C#
app is hosting the SWF. You can communicate back and forth between C#
(or any .NET language) and ActionScript in this scenario.

One of my co-workers just gave a presentation on this subject at a
Flash conference in Australia (MXDU05). You can download the slides
and sample code here:

If you're not talking about hosting the SWF and instead mean
communicating with a SWF running in a web page from a desktop app,
then you can communicate through ActionScript's LocalConnection. You
can either try to hack the protocol used or much more easily host a
small SWF in your app which can be used to proxy messages between your
app and the SWF in a web page.

HTH,

Sam
