>We have a VFP 3.0 (slowly moving to 6.0)application running on NT file server w/ about 30 users. We also have 20 field reps that need access to our data from either home or laptops on the road. They would need read only on the app and the ability to run reports. We have T1 with DID so dial in is realatively easy.
>Two questions:
>1) How is the best way to access the app remotely? Hardware and additional software recommendations?
>2) Best way to design our upgrade to 6.0 to handle this?
>Internet probably not an option.
