>>Hi all
>>
>>There was a product called FoxServer which I cannot locate online anymore. I'm actually looking for a way to simulate SQL Server and have FoxPro on a server query data and return a cursor. That is not the same as accessing remote tables over the LAN or via ODBC. Is DCOM an option? If so, does anyone have a simple runnable example?

It's not intended for public access, just on a lan. I'm thinking I could roll my own with a little vfp "server" looking into a shared request table, where clients place their requests.
