I HATE software firewalls! Far too easy to foul up. I use them on laptops
for traveling only, never on units behind a decent hardware firewall or
router.

Good work, BTW. Had I known you had a software firewall I would have
suggested turning it off for testing.

Now then, stop trying to blame the firewall and fix your VFP code ! <g>...
