>I have been trying to compile a simple DLL, based on a form, and call it from the command window using a CREATEOBJECT command. It compiles fine, registers itself, etc, but when I try to "show" it, it does not appear. However, it is instantiated and I can run its methods, and view its properties successfully. When I instantiate it, this is my code:
>
>x = createobject('oletest.test')
>x.visible = .t.
>x.show

>As I said, it does get created, but does not visually appear anywhere on the screen. Am I missing something obvious?

You cannot create any form of COM object, that is a DLL that has a visual interface in VFP. Sorry, but that's its limitation.
