Hi John Yes, WCF is huge. But you don't need to learn all about it to use it. I have attended some demo session and quite fast you can set up some test scenarios. Microsoft has some intro stuff as well: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg132851.aspx I haven't worked with WCF for any practical project but would love to follow the thread. /gustav >>> jwcolby at colbyconsulting.com 16-12-2010 22:47 >>> WCF looks like the ticket for my requirement to access data over the internet using a client .Net application. I have three different projects for three different clients all of which really need to interface to a database over the web. WCF is... way over my head. I am reading a book - O'Reilly - Learning WCF by Michelle Bustamonte. About all I can say is wow. Rarely have I encountered so many acronyms in a single (the first) chapter. I have another book - Microsoft WCF Step By Step by John Sharp. I just started reading Learning WCF last night. Luckily I have the holidays to do some heavy reading. I think I will be able to eventually figure it out but I thought I'd see if anyone on the list has done this and wants to start a discussion thread. -- John W. Colby www.ColbyConsulting.com
