My client has someone else run their web pages (an ISP) and I've been given a series of page names (MYCATEGORY.HTML) that need to replace their old pages. I need to be able to do this on a regular basis, probably through a menu option. I know that the full WestWind application can do this, but I'm wondering if I need the whole thing (rather than just the Internet Protocols or the Client Tools are all I need or is there a simpler way I havent thought of.

VFP has great string manipulation capabilities - I don't see a need for any add-on product to do this. You could generate the output to your liking, then manually upload the files to the site via ftp. Since it will be interactive ('through a menu option'), there is no need to automate this unless you want to spend (waste) the time.
