Executing a FoxPro Program

[mletson]

Hello,

There is a FoxPro program that I want to kick off from a ColdFusion web page. The program resides on another server. The name of the program is replicate.RPG.

I know that I can interface with FoxPro databases and such, but is it possible to kick off a program from within Cold Fusion? Currently, the user opens Visual FoxPro and fires off a command line with a couple of parameters supplied.

Thanks!

ColdFusion cannot directly start any program that resides on another machine. You can use cfexecute to run anything you can run from a commandline on the local machine. But cfexecute cannot access and run something on another server.
