Pro-Talk Story Editing System:
Pro-Talk are a UK-based internet publishing company which produces several email newsletter and
web site combinations in the industrial and scientific sectors, for
example Engineering Talk
After initial discussions with the client who was looking for a Visual FoxPro system to distribute
among various editors of the many web sites run by Pro-Talk. I
proposed a system using ASP (Active Server Pages), ADO (ActiveX Data Objects) and ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) to run in
a browser and interface to Visual FoxPro data tables, this solution resulted in a very cost
effective system that can be run on any PC that has a browser and web server software installed
that supports ASP.
The system has recently been modified to allow editors to create weekly newsletters by simply selecting from a series of screens.
