web based app is the best solution . but i didn't do that. I choose to use WD19 to write windows application using webservice to access the database.&#13;
I have long read about such method and want to try in real live but it become the stupid things i ever build .&#13;
&#13;
what i had found from this experiment?&#13;
1. alot of coding. (good bye to screentosource() and SourcetoScreen()). if you think not big deal , try to update 40 columns.&#13;
&#13;
2. the speed is very very slow . even though the database and webservice is on different machine and I using native access . so slow that the program interface already finish drawing while data still loading in behind . give you async feeling.&#13;
&#13;
3. primitive functions available . retrieve data using column number rather than column name is no fun . (good bye to select * from tbl)&#13;
&#13;
4. alot strange error / bugs . for example i want to assign the value to a combo control .&#13;
combo_test..value = SQLGetCol("QRY1", 1)&#13;
error caught by exception is SQLGetCol should return a value . but if i assign it to a variable&#13;
test_id is string = SQLGetCol("QRY1", 1)&#13;
combo_test..value = test_id&#13;
&#13;
i don't know what cause the error . i have 10 combo controls and only 2 give such error.&#13;
&#13;
5. sqlconnectWS() and sqldisconnect() . should i use this everytime i want to access db or should i put this at startup/end of application .&#13;
i tried put at startup of application . sometime i get error "no connection" . so i try put it in begining/end of the scope of the process. this method resolve "no connection" but the webservice getting multiple connections from one program.&#13;
&#13;
I endup spend 2 weeks for the program which in trial , because of slow become unusable .&#13;
