Vince,
I would definitely recommend using MySQL in the mix to hold data and NOT to
try and do PHP to VFP Updates.
Go the C/S Route: You know it makes sense.

Thank you! Honestly, I really wouldn't need any new features - just need
to do straight queries and updates. This portion of it is 99% reporting,
and 1% updating a table ("Charge clieng X $$$ for report Y on Date()) I
wouldn't need AutoInc, either. Also, since my other option was foxisapi, I
don't think I would have been able to use new features anyway. Thanks
again for that link.
