If you can work it out with php/mySQL, I suggest that you read Erel's mySQL tutorial.

Abbas,
if the data resides on your local machine then why do you want to go around Cape Town? what's the function of the Internet service?
I would automate outlook or write a client app for people to install in their devices and send requests directly to my machine by email. the email function will be transparant to users of the app. just one solution among others.. another solution is your customers use your app to send text messages (SMS) to your server with embedded and formatted requests parsed and packaged into a text msg.

Dear Beja,
Internt Web Service is used to deliver my current ip address to the clints,Outlook application or sms application wouldnt be a practical because there will be alot of limitation and i prefere soct programming beacase (as far as i know) is easiar to implement.

Dear Erel,
can i send text file with less than 6Kbytes and 200Kbytes images using your B4A server example and if that is possibel please how can i do that.

Many thanks for all
Abbas
