>Some of the programmers (language not disclosed - to protect the guilty) working for the same customer I do are trying to sell the idea that "we are setting ourselves up for trouble" by using VFP 5.0 to develop C/S applications. "VFP doesn't support true C/S","We'll have constant crashes", "A nuclear winter is sure to follow","El Nino is nothing compared to the trouble" ect. ect.
>I have done numerous similar applications in 2.0 ,2.5, 2.6 and 3.0 all successfully. This is my first in 5.0.What I need are a few examples of successful applications in 5.0 (At lease 10 "clients" 50 -100 entries per day). TIA
Well, it isn't an example, but the Windows Architecture Training for Developers
by Microsoft Press says that VFP is an excellent C/S tool. You should pull down some information from
www.microsoft.com/vfoxpro. Obviously these people don't know what they are talking about.
