>Thanks, where can I download wwHttp?

It's part of West Wind Client Tools:

http://west-wind.com/WestwindClientTools.aspx

It's not free though :-)

You can probably do what you need with vfpConnection too. The main point is that you have to post a JSON or XML document.

>>>Hi,

>>>I've been trying out an online service that allows you to send SMS. Unfortunately I am having difficulty understanding their samples and translating them to VFP.

>>> Ability to convert Account Sid & Auth token into a Base64 encoded value.

>>>If it doesn't, you may have to use any built-in / 3rd party VFP libraries to convert "Account Sid":"Auth token" combination to a Base64Encoded value.

>>>Base64Encode("AC123434598475:slak09j4g49j04j") - Do not forget the ':'
