>I have successfully implemented a Web Service that enters reservations into our back-office vfp app. This has been achieved quite easily thanks to you folks here at UT ( specially Antonio ) using soap.
>I have now a company that needs to use our services, but do not use SOAP, but HTTP POST. As i understand, i'll have to give them some page in my server where they can post the XML parameter, for me to process. I guess i'll have to write a COM server of some sort, that can accept this parameter ( like my web service ) and does more or less the same job as my web service. The thing is i don't have a clue where to start even looking for this...Will i have to put some asp page that can call my com server? Can it receive asynchonous xml parameters the same way as the web service? etc...

If the back-office vfp application is the same in both situations, you could try to create an ASP that receives the POST, creates a SOAP request, calls your web service, returns the result in whatever format the caller is expecting. Does this make sense?
