Use the Kentico CMS in a separate project aspnet

Hello everyone,
I apologize in advance for my English!

Question:
we have developed a dotnet project - C #.
the project is already at an advanced stage and there is now sought chance to manage content on our site using the Kentico Content Management System (CMS - for example, create a template with cms that inside contains a textbox header and ensure that when you change the text in this textbox, the change is applied to all textbox header of the site) ...
If it had been thought of before this solution, we created the site starting from the logic of Kentico CMS and integrating the pages within it, but unfortunately so it was not!

so now we should, if possible, be able to hook in our template created with Kentico CMS (now totally exempt from our project) our aspx pages.
do you know if there is a way to do this?
Or know an easier way for centralized management of content with CMS Kentico?
if I was not clear do not hesitate to let me see,

Thank you so much
Ale

How to integrate Kentico CMS with other application is described here. Best regards, Juraj Ondrus

RE:Use the Kentico CMS in a separate project aspnet

hello and thanks for the reply.

I would need a API (dll) that goes to interrogate the table CMS_PageTemplate.
At the moment I use the object: = new CMS.TreeEngine.TreeProvider objTreeProvider CMS.TreeEngine.TreeProvider ();

Through this object, I'll get the value of the fields in the table CMS_Document by the syntax:
objTreeProvider.SelectNodes (Site, Node, "en-us", true, "", "", "", 10, SelectOnlyPublish) ..

this syntax by default only to the table top CMS_Document.

There is a syntax similar to point instead to the table CMS_PageTemplate in order to manage the data within it?
I hope I was clear:)

hello and thank you again
Alessio

RE:Use the Kentico CMS in a separate project aspnet

Do your own project database and kentico database sit on the same server?

I had a project like your situation. I created document types (only a container) and created queries to interact with my own project database.

e.g. select * from [own project].dbo.[tablename]
e.g. exec [own project].dbo.[stored procedure name]

I could also execute any stored procedures as well. This approach quite handy and manage all code in the CMSDesk.

Just my 2 cents.
