Hello, without further information, it is not really possible to give any kind of indication that a web app can replace the original app. We do not know what the original app is supposed to do, how it works, ... Having said that, I think most apps would be possible to transform to some web app. That does not mean it is generally a good or bad idea, that depends on the situation. Since you already suggested you are avoiding the process of an installable software, I think that may actually be what you are trying. regards, Maarten On Fri, 2010-08-06 at 07:45 +0530, Vinay Kannan wrote: > Hi, > > I need some help and its actually got nothing to do with any coding help. > My friend owns a business and has been using a software developed on VB6.0 > installed on a Windows XP it is a bit outdated though and I personally feel > the company which sold the software has overdone the sales, coz I personally > feel its way too crappy. > > Now that my buddy has asked me to get a software developed for him if I > would like to.
