PHP web service + VBA Client

[Conrad11]

Hi there,

I need to right a web service that can take in variables and provide a response to a VBA client.

Ideally I would like the web service to only be used by the VBA front end so I would like some sort of authorization if possible.

I was thinking of cheating and using something like this: linky.

Anyone got any ideas on how best to approach this?

Thanks.

Does the VBA front end exist already?

A web service can be as simple as a single script checking variables sent to it via standard HTTP POST or you can create something that can accept XML and do funky stuff with that. There's probably also frameworks that do all of that for you. Knowing the specifications of the (presumably-) existing client section would help with determining which way to go
