Terminal Server/Citrix.

This is something that has concerned me - but I've also had feedback from
other people - and comments eg on Wikis where apps have run successfully -
provided the TS server/s are powerful enough.

PS : What is all this talk about 'socks' ? <g>

An interesting idea and I think I can discuss this with my client for the
medium to long term development of the product. I definitely must get
familiar with Delphi as it does seem to offer several things VFP doesn't.
I went to one of Rick/Markus's events in London last year - it was extremely
well done and I learnt a lot. Since then I've played around with Web
Connect - but just using a Browser client.

I'm not sure it's a solution for the current client as they have already
decided to move to TS/Citrix environment (before I be came involved).

Thanks - I am and I will continue to do so !
