>It seems that the performance of our large application has slowed to crawl. The main component of the problem is the amount of data we are passing across the WAN. Advisor just had an article about why VFP does not do well in the WAN arena. I'm searching for the best solution. I'm thinking this might be the time to move to a browser front end. I really would like to stay with VFP as the backend though.

I am working on converting a VFP app to a Web app using WestWind. Both Frontend and backend are VFP. We transferring the data in XML format and (with a lot of help) binding the XML data directly to VFP controls. For display data, we are using a browser control with the XML data and style sheets. Very cool stuff.
