Hi All
Jumping in here - I've got a good contact at MS VFP tech support - I keep finding bugs while he's still trying to figure out a previous one I reported!

Also can get the C0000005 error, but I down loaded dcom98.exe (or something very similar to that just today from Microsoft) You don't need IE4 or the screen= off as above if you install the above first. Well I should say, in early testing its worked so far. If anyone needs the url and exact file name send me a message. I've got it at work, along with the location.

Robert
