I have heard somewhere that this guy who developed ActiveVFP, Claude Fuchs, stopped supporting this project and is now into liberal politics full-time <bg>

Anyway I've a need to move a customer from an old asp web app that interfaces with VFP back end to a .net (or some other windows based web interface) web front end that still links to the vfp back end. It's a simple setup, login and about 20 pages. but only 5 pass or add data to the backend
