This weeks online Wednesday Night Lecture: COMCodebook by Craig Berntson.

The core of COMCodebook is a standardized programming interface that allows any component or front end to be written in any COM-aware programming language. COMCodebook currently provides a set of components written in Visual FoxPro with a front end written using VBScript and Active Server Pages, as well as a Visual FoxPro front end. It supports both SQL Server 7 and Oracle 8 as database back ends. VB front ends and middle tier components will be added in the future.


No previous knowledge of Codebook is required. Some knowledge of COM will be assumed.

We'll talk about the basics and fill in some areas that either aren't covered in the documentation or aren't clear.
