Hi Rick,

I have a related question. I'd like to build a server object that is instantiated from the client (over the internet) and collects data from that client. So if the code in the server object sais: "Use customer" it should use the custumer table on the client. The object should act as if it was on the client, but the code is centralised on the server. Is this possible/the normal way/inpossible/hard?
