>>>grasping here, but why don't you try returning a value from the method you call in your server, and see if it makes a difference. Also, try putting a copy of your data in a virtual folder, use that data and see if makes a difference. We can then know for sure whether it is indeed a rights issue.

No difference. It's kind of comical at this point, glad I'm not the type to fly off the handle!

As a thought, I remember using a "patched" version of RegSvr32 once to register a VFP component. I never asked why, just did what I was told to do. Is there some reason for using a patched version of RegSvr32, and is it required for VFP components?
