Its N-tier with XML for messaging. Sounds good! However, VFP does not appear on their list of tools for developing these applications, but Access does. AFAIK, you can't develop these kinds of applications using Access! And C# is also on list and its not even viable yet. It just goes to show how little respect VFP gets despite the fact that it fits in very well as a middle tier object in their proposed framework.

I was originally hired by NNS to program in VFP because NAVSEA and other navy commands were using it. I suppose the navy has been moving away from it. Some of their old fox apps may not have been done well enough to make them appreciate VFP.

I learned to drive on a 1972 Pinto.
