Hi
Interestingly I do more VFP/Web work than any other at present. One advantage to VFP on the web is that I have not had any table or index corruption because the web servers are well configured and the files are only opened for a fraction of a second. It is becoming one of my preferred ways to work. VFP is very useful as a middle tier tool.

>Usually the guys who write magazine articles were paid to do work by a 'client'/'customer base' similar to the topic of the article. For example, years ago Doug Hennig wrote great articles about the VFP database container.
> My theory is, very few VFP developers are getting paid to build web services with VFP. Thus, very few magazine articles are written on the topic.
