My other question is, if VFP does not support callback from other Objects is it save to say that callbacks are not widely used or not recommended method of doing asynchronous exchange of messages between objects. I would think that callbacks are very usefull for slow or long process that would run in a server and notifty the client onces the job is done. Could someone enlighten me on this subject and what is MS stand on this. Thanks in advance.
