>I don't have the book, but knowing Rick, I would bet that he tried to keep the book from being an advertisement for his product. So I don't think you will see a lot of WWWC specific stuff in the book, but you will probably see a lot of methods and teqhniques outlined that are implemented inside WWWC.

>Yeah. www.West-wind.com

>From what I have seen of the x-works product, it does indeed provide a quick and painless way to connect to VFP logic, but beyond a few basic tools, you are somewhat on your own as far as HTML generation goes. WWWC comes with a lot of utilities to provide for things like sessions and cookies, templates containing VFP code, multiple server sessions, etc. It also gives you quick ways to show SQL results, charts and a bunch of other stuff.

Thanks again Eric for taking your time to respond. I do have PWS installed and I downloaded WWWC and installed it earlier this week. If you have time...just one more question...or two :-) What are you using for your web server? Do you use a web hosting service? I promise, no more ?'s after this!

Thanks

John.
