Hi,
I read (what I think is interesting) an article from JBoss.
http://www.jboss.org/modules/html/blue.pdf
It validates what I think I should be doing for the near future. I even sounds like I could use VFP as a frontend to a JBoss server. VFP->JBoss->database. Not sure about VFP at the moment. But I think VFP can call a JavaBean.
