isn't always practical, secure, or flexible. Instead, it's often better to
provide Web service wrapper around existing applications. Such wrappers let
you safely expose existing systems to both internal and external customers
and can work with a variety of communication methods via configurable
protocols.

access to full blown VB, John Peterson has also added the StrConv method
for comparison.
