They may be confusing "web enabled" with "web page" ... if you have a regular windows rich-client UI (be it in VFP or .NET), but retrieve your data from a web server via Web Services, your app can be considered "web enabled". Maybe this is all they need to be convinced that they are indeed using the web and their intranet to access their data.

I am thinking that some of these apps can't run on the web because the UI is too involved and complicated. Am I missing something? I've never seen an interactive web site that does field level validation and many of the other great vfp features.
