>1. Can anyone tell me if it's possible to create DCOM servers using VFP. I know it's possible to create OLE (ActiveX) dll's. I've just created one as a quick test and used it successfully from VB.

Yes, when you create a VFP 6.0 .EXE, and class you expose to COM (declare public) are avialable to any ap that can be a COM client. Only difference between COM and DCOM is that with DCOM the server is on a remote machine. You may have to play with the comconfig tool. I have been able to do this is the automation server was on my NT machine, but not when it was on my Win 98 machine. I think I had an older version of DCOM.

>2. I've been told that it's not possible to add/edit/delete records in vfp database/tables via ODBC. ie In a VB app If I wanted to open a vfp table and write to it via ODBC, I couldn't. Surely this is not the case!

Smack whoever told you this!
