>> Great! You're DevCon session is already on my list as a must attend and I'm looking forward to the white paper.
I agree. Randy's session at DevCon will be one of the most important one to attend. BTW, a tip to lurkers on this thread is...
Using VFPCOM.DLL with MSMQ in VFP. MSMQ has event objects that allow you to "listen" to any received message so you can have an event fire instead of polling MSMQ in a loop. The new BindEvents() in VFPCOM.DLL works great with MSMQ events. You can store ADO recordsets, or possibly better, XML strings, in MSMQ messages to allow you to transport VFP data or object information from one machine to another in a distributed environment. If you use MSMQ with VFP or plan, I highly recommend you download wwXML.zip from
http://www.west-wind.com where Rick Strahl has a class library that converts cursors to/from XML and also VFP objects to/from XML, which is perfect for passing VFP data and objects via MSMQ.
