Rick Strahl wrote a book about Internet Applications with VFP 6.0 you might want to check out at www.hentzenwerke.com. It was too difficult for me though. Also, check out West Wind Web Connection (website is www.west-wind.com or something like that). The product you'd be interested in is West Wind Web Connection - it's a VFP web server.

You can also use foxweb (www.foxweb.com) or get down and dirty with the FOXISAPI and write your own VFP web server or something like that. Either way, it will take some doing to set up and I hope you're looking at hosting on your Intranet 'cause VFP hosting with an ISP is really damn expensive.

Another option is to use VFP for COM only and then call the COM components from ASP. I think using ASP with VBScript on the server is your best bet for front end and ADO makes a great data manipulation (via SQL) engine.

Good luck!
