>>Our department has $15,000 available to buy hardware and software for a Web server. After talking with some folks at our university, it sounds like getting NT 4.0, IIS 3.0 with Active Server Pages, and a VFP database backend is feasible. We would then write VB Scripts to talk to FoxPro and send information to IIS. Does this sound like a good combination? Can FoxPro be used instead a VB Scripts?

I am open to other ideas. What else can or should I use? Here is an excerpt from the IIS documentation at the MS Web site:

Active Server Pages support any ActiveX scripting language through the use of scripting "engines." Scripting engines are the Component Object Model (COM) objects that process scripts. IIS 3.0 will include native support for VBScript and JScript, and plug-ins are available for REXX, Perl, Tcl, and other scripting languages.
