It sounds like this product has been around for awhile. Does it work well? Does it have features that compare even to today's web standards? To me it sounds similar to classic ASP except using FoxPro instead of vbscript.

>Even though pure Foxpro code is the core, it is also possible to use the Visual Studio IDE (or Web Developer Express, I think) to design the actualy page layout that you want rendered. I think this is relatively new feature of Web Connect, and I think Rick recently made a few videos about how this works.

>>In short webconnect (like other similar tools - Foxweb) is a service that runs on the server, waiting for strings to arrive from the webbrowser via HTTP. The string contains the prg to call and the parameters. The service then executes the prg with the parameters, and returns a formatted HTML page with the resulting data (or answer). All the prgs are pure foxpro code.

>>>As an ASP.NET developer, I've always wondered how webconnect worked. Can you give a high-level explanation?

>>>>I have stopped doing "Free" foxpro projects a long time ago, when I realise I could make a living at it. As for .Net, I had intentions recently to learn it for a particular module I needed to do (Timesheet on the net with SilverLight), but I had a time constraint and the learning curve was too steep, so we switched to webconnect, because there was no learning curve.

>>>>>I am "working" for free on a Visual FoxPro project; the non-profit corp has no revenue stream, yet. I do it as I can, while studying C#, VB.NET and ASP.NET. I still love to develop with Visual FoxPro and would take a paying-VFP-project at any point. :) Taking VFP jobs might not be career-enhancing, but they're fun anyway.

>>>>>With the above said, I am finding that with .NET, I especially like C# first, ASP.NET 2nd, and VB.NET 4th. So, why did I skip the 3rd place? VB has never been my favorite anything. Okay, I am joking a little, but not much.

>>>>>>Stephane, as you know ,I have made a living from Foxpro since 1986 and the more of you leave Foxpro for something else, to more work I have to support what you guys leave behind. So keep on leaving Foxpro, I'll never retire.
