I've used .NET XML web services to develop the client to "ask the server for a dataset" and get the answer in an XML document.
With the web service, you can eliminate needing the UniData DK client .DLL's and it's a lot faster. (Plus you can databind to the XML dataset on the form) -----Original Message----- From: Martin Scholl [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 2:35 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2] [UV] UniObjects across the internet I've done this for testing purposes. It is fairly slow, since a fat client like VB has lots of data exchange with the database. For example populating dropdown boxes from a select list takes long since each ReadNext causes a server call. It works though. Just put in the IP address of the dataserver in the Hostname field of the connection and the correct account in the database name.

I want to make it as simple as possible for the user, ie to be able to do this by just launching the VB client on client with internet access. Has anyone done this and what security steps did you take and what issues did you have.
