I was wondering is someone would mention this...I recently learned in a "What's new in VFP 6.0" training class that VFP 6.0 now does use apartment model threading and saw a COM server (EXE) used as a multi-threaded application supporting data requirement for a web form. One great advance is the the VFP EXE COM servers can now be registered remotely with CliReg32.EXE. Using FoxISAPI.DLL an EXE COM server was pooled into three instances (not a limit, BTW) and process three running instances of web pages requesting data.

Currently VFP 6.0 does not allow multiple threads to run through a DLL under MTS, a fix for that is expected to be out soon.

BTW, it took about 4 megs of sever memory to load the first instance of the pooled EXE COM server, and about 2.5 megs each for the other two.
