Wow. There are certainly a lot to choose from. FWIW, when I needed the same info, I looked at a lot of the available titles and chose Mastering Windows 2000 Server by Mark Minasi, et. al. It's a top seller and I've never been disappointed in it. Available from amazon.com at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0782128726/qid=1003797628/sr=2-1/ref=sr_2_15_1/103-5590407-4467803. OTOH, if you have a local bookstore with a good computer section, go browse: there's no substitue for being able to flip through a book before you decide on it, especially with what this type of book costs.

For a great developer's book with information specific to VFP, there's Rick Strahl's Internet Applications with Visual FoxPro (available from Hentzenwerke at http://www.hentzenwerke.com/catalogavailability/intvfp.htm). And there's a relatively new one also from Hentzenwerke titled WebRAD: Building Database Websites with Visual FoxPro and Web Connection (http://www.hentzenwerke.com/catalogavailability/webrad.htm). I haven't seen it yet but I'm sure it will be worthwhile if you're using Web Connection, and probably even if you're not.

HTH,
