Alan, We already use VFP to RDP in where non complex applications are required or when using remote access.
Just looking for a fairly quick method of data access to DBF's for a small project that doesn't involve a large learning curve... Ultimately we will be using SQL for data access like all the other systems we have. Apart from that, I'd like a play with "other technologies" ... lol!

No matter what you choose, this is the world of web applications and will require a huge amount of restructuring and a huge amount of scaffolding to even deal with security properly, even before you get to actual business problems. FoxInCloud has the advantage of providing a framework for getting you some of the way there from an existing VFP solution. You might find that putting the existing solution on a Windows server in the cloud and allowing the users RDP access is a path of less resistance - in that scenario all the DBF access is happening locally on the server. -- Alan Bourke alanpbourke (at) fastmail (dot) fm [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/mm1p123mb09537662b87b4bd566a79c59fb...@mm1p123mb0953.gbrp123.prod.outlook.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
