James, It's fairly easy to wrap the api calls into the equivalend of an OCX that you cah use from VFP.

I was wondering if one of the new Win 8 tablets (MS Surface for example) would work for this? It would be connected to the file server by Wi-Fi through Remote Desktop Connection, and then have access to the sale company's visual foxpro application. Could a form be created in vfp that would have the basic information for the horse with a editbox type object where the buyer would use a stylus to "sign" his name? Most likely this is being done already and I'd appreciate any advice on how best to accomplish this task.
