Other public domain ideas for web articles:
-Use the ASP objects in VFP web apps
-Use the ASP objects for ASP.NET
-Web upload with VFP
-debugging a vfp web app
-VFP web scripting using CodeBlock or VFP's ExecScript
-Process HTML templates with VFP
-Create a simple web authentication app with VFP
There are many, many more potential ideas in this area. I have tried to add many of these examples to my web site at www.dotcomsolution.com/avfpdemo2/default.aspx ...

>>Good lord, have you ever done any of this stuff? I get the same questions on interop and web stuff over and over again here on the UT and these things have never been covered by the mags....

>I've worked through the samples in the whitepapers and articles, and I'm working on a project right now that will use VFP COM with ASP.NET.
>
>I'm pretty consistently here on the UT on a daily basis, although I don't always post messages daily. I cannot recall very many questions on COM Interop here, but if there are persistent problems that people are having in using it, I'd like to know so I could target information in that direction if and when we run Interop articles.

>I see plenty of questions about web stuff here, and you and Rick (among others) seem to answer those very quickly, so I have not been posting in those threads as much as I once did.
>
>Aside from general questions like, "how can I run my VFP form on the web," what questions are most often asked that do not have good answers available, in your opinion?
>
>>...I guess you're too grounded in the desktop world. There are probably as many articles for vfp web that you could do as have been done for the desktop which have been covered ad nauseum ...
>
>Actually, I have much more experience in Web applications in recent years than in desktop apps. Web development involving VFP is one very broad area that I do have on my list of topics to address in future issues.

>NOTE: If you want to take this discussion private, we could perhaps hash out some possible topics for focused articles to go on the editor's wish list. (For example, I still want to know what kind of problems people are having with COM Interop.)
