When I've done this in the past, going the route of creating a WS to do
it was going to be too much of a hassle.
Instead, I create an XML file that contains all of the recent versions
of the apps and then use MSXML to download the XML file (and parsing it
out into its own DBF file)
So my version table looks like:
CAPP C(30)
NVERSION N(5)
I do a CURSORTOXML() and then post it up (via FTP) onto a web site (and
now it can be ANY web site- doesn't require an IIS for WS)
and then grab it down with
lox = createobject("MSXML.DomDocument")
IF lox.Load("http:/xxxxx.xxx.xxx/version.xml")
IF XMLTOCURSOR (lox.xml)
** compare versions
ENDIF
ENDIF
small, dirty and quick - but it has worked fairly well.
