Hi there;

I'd go along with Claude in recommending Citrix/TS for your situation. The VPN option would work, but a lot of data would have to be pulled across the wire - not good for a dialup or slow DSL.

A more long term solution would be to write a Web-Based interface for your application and use WebConnect or FoxWeb to make the whole app available on the internet - a fair amount of work, but definitely a more long-term solution.
