Bob,

I was just asked the other day about something like this.
I'm thinking of perhaps a thin-client or something like that.
You create a mini application and compile it that has all the forms
and reports in it but the actual resides on the remote server.

I'm not sure if that is what you are talking about or not.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Web Access Question




List,



Need some advice and ideas.

I have a complicated application residing on a server.

The client wants others to be able to access this application over the web 
from off-site locations.

A web app is out of the question, I do not have the time nor expertise to 
recreate this, it is constantly moving target!



Solo….

How do I allow multiple (maybe 5 or more) users to use this application over 
the web?

Will remote desktop allow multiple users?

Is there a third party product that does this?

Do I need a bank of remote PCs attached to the server for each user to 
access?



A couple years ago, I was hoping that client server would do this, but I 
guess moving forms and data over the web is too slow.  The R:Base 
application tools and forms are just so easy and superior.  I have not seen 
a web app that can work like this.  If
I had the time, maybe, but this is too far along to re-write  and have all 
the rules and form doodads recreated.



Any ideas appreciated, I am speaking to a network guy tomorrow sometime and 
wanted some ideas.



TIA

Bob C
