Hi - does anyone have sample code that will enable me to have my VB app contact my sql server over http: to see if a users subscription is valid?

thanks in advance!
 
If I was you I wouldn't expose your SQL server directly to the internet.

Use a web server and do a SOAP request.

There are tons of posts on SOAP in this forum.

If you put your SQL server directly on the internet you are just asking for trouble IMHO.

Hope I've been helpful,
Wayne Francis
