This Month's Meeting ....The next LA Fox meeting is this Tuesday, the second Tuesday of the month.  We will be back at NCR this month but we will now be using their new meeting room on the 16th floor. The guards may also be moving but we're not sure when. So, check with the guards if they are still in the lobby. If they aren't there, take the elevator to the 12th floor and that's where they should be. They will use their badge to let you get on the elevator to the 16th floor. We will try to have someone available to direct you this first time. Please see www.lafox.org for a map if you need directions to NCR.

VFP Jump Start begins at 7:00pmThe purpose of this half hour session will be to provide information on some short topics which will be useful to our members.  This month Bill Anderson will conduct the JUMP START, covering the properties, events, and methods of grids. Very good stuff to know!  So, please join us from 7:00-7:30 for this discussion.  Bring topics for areas where you could use a bit of enlightening, refreshing, etc.

Creating Web Services with VFP 7

Summary: Web Services can be available anywhere. You can either create them yourself or access them over the Web from wherever they happen to be published. You can use Visual FoxPro to create Web Services, and if you register them in IntelliSense, Visual FoxPro makes it possible for you to access them almost automatically. You also can use Visual FoxPro to access Web Services created in other languages.  Continued.....
