I have had requests from some clients who want to provide telephone access to
data strored in my system.  The system would have to retrieve data from my
files and also be able to write or pass requests back.  For security purposes,
I would need to run a list of all records accessed. I would like to be able to
offer this option to other clients once it is complete.

I know there are numerous 3rd party libraries that will allow me to code this
myself, but due to time constaints,  I will be unale to do so.  If there are
any clipper guys out there (and I know there are!!) who have done this before,
I would be very interested in purchasing (if the price is right...of course) a
complete hardware/software package.  Ideally, I am interested in something that
will link into my app as another library with a set of function calls to talk
to the hardware.

I am open to any solution however, as long as it works and is accessible by my
clipper code thru some sort of interface.

If you are interested or have any comments or even better, know of a existing
clipper library that can be used quickly and easily, please contact me at:

Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry I don't have details but you may want to look into a product
called Citrix.  They offer a modem server product.  Your customers
would be able to dial into a bank of modems hooked to a PC on your
network (full security options) and run your app and access your data.

The good points:

   You don't need to re-write your main app

   The customers only need a single PC and modem

   The citrix piece which goes to the customer is (I believe) free for
distribution

   You could code the control of what data elements were accessed in
clipper and have that as part of the app running on your server

Ok - so it isn't web access but it does work well.

Good luck at finding anything on that site. Their allfiles.zip which
lists "all" files on the Oasis is over a year old.

It's not that they don't have good/trerrific stuff there, it's that it
takes forever to find it.

How long does it take to download a small zip file, expand it and text
search it?

Or, you can use the search link and find anything on the site in under
10 seconds.

Your choice.

We are currently releasing ClipVoice as Public Domain tools.
Some time ago, I contacted the oasis and asked if they were interested
in posting ClipVoice on the site. I was told to send it, and it would be
added. I did send it, and assumed it was there, but I guess its not..
You might email them.
This lib gives you full control of the dialogic boards.

Besides the Search didn't find the file either.

I had actually heard about ClipVoice a number of months ago, and also found
out it was supposed to be on your FTP/Web Site.  I could not find it
anywhere either?

Can you repost the library to the Oasis site?  It apparently never made it
there.  Unless it is obscure.  What would the file name be on Oasis?   I
tried to find ClipVoice a while ago on Oasis and could not find it.

I simply haven't had time to deal with the web site since I became
first, Vice President of our Linux user group, and now President.

Dave Pearson (et al) is interested in reworking the site from the
ground up. This must wait until he is successfully settled in his new
home, and until he has time.

Until then, it's an abandoned work in process.

I have had time to add the search function and keep up the link page.

But, it's incredibly time consuming to add files.

I really didn't want to invest any more time into it before the
makeover.

Anybody done something like this before?

Phil Barnett has kindly sent me the ClipVoice software, so can someone
please allow me to upload ClipVoice to their site, as a temporary
measure, until Phil is able to place it on "The Oasis".

I can email it, but as our email server has a 2.5Mb limit, I can only
email in in two 'pieces' (will need to cut it up). Obviously placing it
on a site is a better solution (albeit temp) for everyone.

Thanks

Pedro
