Unless you require very fast response times, I wouldn't be too hasty in dumping your existing ISDN link. To get best performance from a VFP app over a slow link:

- Make sure the .EXE is local to all machines. This may mean slight mods to your app so it can access data on a different drive/net share etc.

- Include an appropriate CONFIG.FPW file at each workstation to ensure temporary files are all created on a local hard disk.

- Wherever possible, make sure your queries are fully Rushmore optimizable. Apparently, if they are, VFP makes clever use of index tags to minimize network traffic.

A 128K ISDN link will never be as fast as local 10- or 100BASE-T but you might be surprised how close you can get in real world performance.
