I am upgrading a system written in old versions of Foxpro for windows. I wanted to present a new system that will make use of the LAN.

My idea is to have a desktop computer that will act as a data server of several workstations. I wanted to have a submit button in my webpage where data from the workstations will be saved in the data server. When printing reports, my visual foxpro program will simply retrieve data from the data server and print it. I don't want any data to be saved in the workstations.

I wonder now what issues shall I need to consider when creating this system. I know VFP can handle multi-users but will this make my system run slower? I have only about 50 users running 5 different systems. All data from these system will ideally be in one desktop computer.

I know that I can make a webpage using VFP, although I'm not sure HOW.

Please advise me.

TIA.
