I have found that I can't deploy code that trys to use the _reportlistener.vcx.

The following code produces the report using the vfp classes on my development machine but does not when deployed to a test machine.

    define class getstream as custom OlePublic
    . . . 
    lctheoutput=""
    loListener = .null.
    Set Classlib To _reportlistener.vcx Additive
    loListener = Createobject("htmllistener")
    IF TYPE("lolistener") <> "O" then
         CLOSE TABLES all
         RETURN "Createobject('htmllistener') does not create an Object"
    ELSE   
    Report Form regionbudget.frx Object loListener
    lctheoutput=Filetostr(loListener.targetfilename)
    return lctheoutput
    . . . 
    enddefine

The project includes classes: _htmllistener.vcx and _fixcursor.vcx
If I can get this figured out then I can subclass the htmllistener and do what you suggested.
I haven't had any luck yet

I Shield redistributables include: Gdiplus.dll, msvcf71.dll, MSVFP 9 Report Apps, MSVFP 9 Runtime Libs and MSXML4.0 twice.
