>>Getting Ready for Web Services
>>To prepare for using Web Services, we recommend that you build your application on a multi-tier architecture. The recommended approach for new application development is to author middle-tier business components in Visual Basic 6.0 or Visual C++ 6.0 and to expose them as COM components. Developers will be able to easily convert these middle-tier components to Web Services.
