RE: setting controlsource for 1:many objects in n-tier design

Very interesting, A=2E When you're talking about their "art-of-design," are you

referring to their style sheets---you're saving their stylesheet/templates in

tables that they can modify? Cool=2E=2E=2Ethanks for the tips=2E >>>=20=

I have options for passing back numeric values, straight text, delimited

text, HTML, File path pointer (Pre-made HTML file, picture, =2E=2E=2E), Arrays,

ADO and XML=2E These options are simply passed into the VFP COM server method

as a parameter=2E Again, it depends on the situation as to what I use but at

least those options are there=2E

Yes, VFP is very efficient in constructing and spitting back HTML strings=2E I

tend to let VFP handle that instead of the ASP page when I can=2E What's neat

(to me anyway) is when you are working on a project with actual "Web

Designers" and they want to enforce all of these visual design features,

elements and rules=2E You give them a few tables and a frontend to those

tables where they can store and manage their 'art of design' whereby you can

access those tables from your VFP COM server and spit back that stuff on the

fly=2E So, IOW, you have easy access to their web design (stored and updated

by them at anytime in the tables)=2E
