VFP abstracts it so you don't see the XML. Personally, my webservices all have just 2 parameters in VFP-- inputXML and outputXML. I can then define in my own code what should be there and handle good defaults if it's not(i.e. mis-matched client/server versions-- very common when you distribute software). As for updates, I use the soap/XML converations for control, and have a seperate 'pickup' directory for temporary compressed files for reading/writing(http PUT commands to let the client upload). This works very well, and we have many thousands of these conversations take place every day world-wide now. -- Derek _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
