Hey Ken,
any idea why this very basic example doesn´t work? Checked out Sergey´s suggestions in an earlier thread and some variations with no success. The quoted article from July 05 is still on VS 2003 where you needed to write your own manifests.

And: Did you already try to Isolate the VFP runtime in addition to the COM server?
Thanks
