RE: Client/Server Applications - what to use?

["Walden H. Leverich" <WaldenL@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey, be nice <G>. 

Actually, VB apps to get implements and work quite well. The general rule of
thumb we've come up with over the years is to start with a VB app (or COM
object in the case of the web) and then only if performance is REALLY bad
replace certain parts of the app with C++ COM objects. More often than not
we don't go to C++. The exception tends to be where we want to store objects
in the Session and Application space in ASP, can't do that with VB -- well,
you can, but you don't want to.
