Hallo,
we have tested WINDEV and a connection to a database ( Hyperfile ) via Internet with VPN and ADSL.The result was satisfied. Does anybody has more or the same expirience with that.

We've tested that kind of things with adsl in Belgium and the result were satisfying. Just try to avoid filters.

Christoph,
On top of that: connect to your Remote Application
via a Terminal-Server-session and you are in "heaven".
Even through a (simple) modem-telephone-connection iso ADSL.
Be aware of the follwing limitations though:
-No handling of Serial, Parallel or USB-ports (of your client-PC)
from within your Windev-application.
-Generating to, storing or retrieving files from your Local (ie C-)Disks
is impossible too(=typical TS-limitation)

Hi Lieven,

A year ago I created a WD5.5b serial and parallel port communication module to integrate weighing scales, barcode scanners and zebra printers with an ERP package. This code only ran on the (Citrix) terminal servers in Ireland from which users all over the world (Europe, South Africa, Japan, ...) accessed the application. Within (Citrix) Terminal Server, serial ports, parallel ports, drives etc. can transparently be mapped from the clients (user workstation) to the (Citrix) terminal server. This is standard functionality. The only thing that needed to change was the user startup script mapping the local COM and LPT ports to the server. This was done with the NET USE command if I recall correctly.
Just for your information.
Regards,
Peter
