If that's how it works - then, seems you have looked into it a LOT more than I have. I know of it - but, only peeked at it peripherally - as I didn't have a specific need yet for which I needed a specific solution.
Mostly I was just giving a heads up about it - since, it seemed to me to be very close to what you were talking about. But, since you've probably been on this list a lot longer than me - I should have figured you would be familiar w/FoxInCloud - and that you had already probably looked into it...

It, as I understand it, converts your VFP application to HTML forms. Sweet, neat, fun to eat, but not what my goal is. I'm looking at the backend, not the interface. Or maybe I missed your point?

Here's what might be a crazy idea... Instead of using a local Windows or Linux box as a file server for DBF files... What if someone were to set up a Windows share drive from a Cloud drive service...like Rackspace offers? Would that file share source be a) acceptable to Foxpro for file locks, buffers, etc b) prone to index corruption c) speedy enough to serve the purpose? I'm thinking of a situation where multiple distant locations need to access the same files, with mostly reading but some updating. Anyone doing that? Anyone aware of a reason it would be a bad idea? I guess the main point would be the speed of the Internet connection...
