Hi Robert ----

Create a table (clstrack) with two fields: Class and ClassSource. Add a record for "foo" with Class=foo and ClassSource= either fooclass (vcx is irrelevent) or fooclass.dll. Index on class

USE clstrack IN 0 ORDER TAG class
SEEK "foo" IN clstrack
cFooSource=clstrack.classsource
oFoo=NEWOBJECT("foo",cFooSource)
USE IN clstrack

Something like that?
