I don't know of any package that will accomplish the total interface but all of the tools you need are contained in VFP.

There are a lot of different EDI formats and standards. I am familiar with those involved with the transportation industry. In most cases my clients deal with customers through a third party. But.... the main issue is that if you understand the file layouts, you can use the VFP low level file functions to read the files and reformat the data into your VFP tables. We even have one case where customers send 'load tenders' via EDI which require a response within 15 minutes. We have a timer that polls the incoming EDI files avery 5 minutes, reads the EDI data and transforms it to VFP tables which are then displayed on a color coded screen. The client than decides whether to accept or decline the work. That response is transmitted back to the customer via EDI.

Sorry to be so long winded, hope this heps.
