Judith, You simply need to expose data via a set interface. Where it comes from and what provides the content doesn't matter.
What may well matter however is which webserver software you are running M$ or Linux (Apache etc.) and how you are going to feed the webservice as well as where from e.g VFP using XML via PHP or MySQL via PHP etc. etc etc. Maybe you can provide a little more info and I'm sure others will respond.

I work for a kosher certifying agency. We need to communicate with other certifying agencies via web services. I do not think it wil be a problem for me to consume their web service and get their info but I was wondering how to provide a web service for them. My database is not on a web server. Is there a way to provide web services to them without having to put the data in a sql server database or mysql. Any help would be appreciated.
