What about a terminal server type setup? You can host everything at the main office and allow the remote users to get in with remote client.

Client wants to browse database (30000 records) with some (not one) criteria which is established at run-time. I tried couple ways (set filter, select ..., local views etc) but results are bad. It is working, but slow. In some cases, when criteria is complex, fox does not respond (message appears) and after some time, records appears and message disappears.
