Has anyone used named pipes to communicate between a FoxPro (FPW/VFP)
application and another application? I would like to modify a C program so
it communicates with a FoxPro application that would run a report based on
the message it gets sent via the named pipe. I found I could use FOPEN to
open the pipe in VFP (the pipe was created in the C sender program) and I
could get an initial message from the sender but I couldn't get more than
just the initial one. I could spend some time trying to code a routine that
uses the API calls but I thought that someone might have done something like this already.

Any help would be appreciated.
