convert application to web based

[randall2nd]

I am curently trying to invetigate the best way to put an application on the web.

The application is written in borland visual C++, and is rather large in size. I am trying to avoid a complete redesign.

Is there an easy conversion tool that can move C++ on the web?

Is there a way to wrap the existing code so that it can be viewable on the web?

Is there a front end I can develope that can interface with the existing code? -- what language would be best?

Any help with these questions would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know how complex your code is but you might try to wrap it in a COM DLLs (here you will have the advantage of COM portability).
For that you will have to move your functions in logical libraries of COM classes.

ASP is able and adapted to create com classes from COM DLLs with Server.CreateObject.

Also the internet implementation depends on how "visual" your C++ is. You will have to generate corespondent ASP code for a part of the 'visual' capabilities of your App.
