>I have been a FoxPro developer for about 5 years now. My company develops all of our systems in-house using FoxPro exclusively. We now want to start putting some of our internal apps on a web site so our users can access information while travelling. Any suggestions as to what languages/classes I should start learning? We will need to design the front end and access our internal DBs. I have a very basic knowledge of HTML and have looked into West-Wind Web Connect and will probably use that. But I'm wondering if I should take a course in VB.net or maybe C++. Will I need to learn ASP?

You can use freeware WebMatrix(www.asp.net) tools. It is done for developers which have not VS.Net. With it you can develop ASP.Net/(C# or VB) webend and it to work with VFP webservice which comminucate with web part using XML.
Yes you have to learn HTML, because some of the forms require basic knowledge of HTML. You will be forced to learn ASP it will be better to learn newest - ASDP.Net and codebehind it is in VB.Net or C#.net which one of them you will chose its up to you. They have similar syntax.

my 2 cents
