Cetin,

I was going to suggest the web browser control too, however, one must keep in mind that there can be no native VFP controls (input fields and buttons in this scenario) shown in the web browser. AFAIK, it can only be "HTML controls" or ActiveX controls.

Having said that, I'm not implying that the web browser control cannot do the job (I firmly believe it can) its just going to take a lot more effort.

Regards,

Mike
