Hello Carlos

Yes VFP can be a client-server app, but you must build 2 programs 1 client side and 1 server side and pass commands to the server app and results or location of resulting tables to the client side.

I belive the best way it to create the server app as a server com object (don't quote me on that)


Hope I helped

>I have a mandate to distribute a VFP application who should work as a client-server one. However I found a bad surprise when analyzing the way that VFP performs a query. A true client-server runs the query against the server and returns the results. Watching the SQL running through a bandwidth sniffer I did verify that the Client is constantly "talking" with the Server and occupying large amounts of bandwidth. I can't deploy the application without solving this problem.
