How best would you use VFP as the middle tier?
Only with a VFP front end.
It is funny that I first thought the same thing. Then I asked myself,
that a VFP middle tier really should work with any front end. Right?
You have to approach this in terms on inter-tier messaging. VFP can
interface great with various backends, but how well does it interface
with different front ends? If the webserver is your front end, and it
'talks' VFP, then VFP is a great middle tier. If your front end is
a .Net form, it probably doesn't speak VFP very well, and might not
be the best choice. If your front end is a Qt form running on Linux,
well...
