>>>Is there a way to print Office document on the server using Fox DLL server?

>>Why would you need to do this? The Office document could be printed directly from anything capable of using a VFP COM Object through the same automation techniques you'd use in VFP if you use the object model, and ShellExecute() could be fired directly as well in all probability...why bother adding a VFP component, since you still need Office installed to use automation?

Well, the automation server would be implemented out of process from the DLL; I have no idea on what issues that'll pose to FoxISAPI, but the DLL itself would not be exposing UI elements.
