I'm fairly new to Progress 4GL and ABL. I've been tasked to connect a Progress ABL program with a .Net web service. This web service will work as an intermediary between an online custom CMS and Progress 4GL database on site. The architecture I've been told is as follows: Progress ABL programs (running on a UNIX box) working with Progress 4GL database. .Net web services (hosted on a local IIS instance). These will work as a bridge between a cloud based CMS and Progress programs. A CMS running in the cloud, will send and receive data from the .Net web services.

Thanks. Update: We are using Progress 10.1
