>MS is promoting VFPCOM primarily to help with ADO, but it actually has a lot more use than just that. For example, I've built an SFTreeViewController class that automatically receives events from TreeView controls. The cool thing about this is that I can now drop a plain old TreeView control on a form (or even instantiate it programmatically at runtime) and not put any code at all into the TreeView. The SFTreeViewController object grabs all the TreeView events and does things (like automatically add children to a node the first time the node is expanded).

Yes, I played a bit with a beta version of the DLL and saw lots of possibilities. I just copied the first paragraph from the readme. Thanks for expanding on its usage.
