I'm trying now to look at "all the possibilities", the West Wind class you suggest being one of them. I'm unsure if a web-server based solution (though still not an HTML solution) is appropriate for this app. Still pondering.

It has a single custom array property and one method called "ReceiveArray". Then, I pass the loArrayObject to the automation server. It creates an array, ex: aServArray[12,4]). The server then calls loArrayObject.ReceiveArray(@aServArray) which copies the array to its .aArray property which can be read by the client.

You might want to see if you can get a copy of the beta. The ATS web application Ken Levy demonstrated at Tech Ed and Devcon shows how to modify source html from the client with administrator priveleges. He's using RDS to pull the web pages down in very small tables. Heck, he's doing stuff in IE3 that IE5 wants to do using dhtml and all the latest bells and whistles.
