I've been able in the Echo method (described below) to open the .ini file with fopen(), no errors. But the length of the file was zero. Then i used a heavy ordinance:

run del fox1234.ini && it worked

The result is reached like the right ear is reached by the left foot.
The best approach that i was able to come up with is to use Timer to delete all accumulated fox????.ini files every 5 min. Delete file VFP command works in the timer.

Thanks for advise

>>I try to develope a test internet OLE server. The problem i have is that after testing the web page i see a bunch of FOX????.ini files created by FoxISAPI.dll in the scripts folder. They say that FoxISAPI.dll deletes the temporary .ini files after calling OLE server method. Apperantly it does not. What's more frustrating i can not delete the file from my method.
