If you use the classid in the function you DONT need to be registered on the client workstation. If you use the ProgID you do need to be registered locally.

>>>I am trying to get a reindex procedure running. The exe is named reindex1. It is registered on the server and my workstation.
>>>
>>>I have a form on a workstation with this in the click event:
>>>Thisform.oreindexServer=CREATEOBJECTEX('reindex1.exe','\\Clubserver')
>>Steve... you want to do... Server.Class, Machine...
>>ThisForm.oReIndexServer = createobjextex('Reindex1.Indexer','ClubServer')
>>For this to work, ReIndex1 would have to be registered on the local machine and the ClubServer machine.
>>>When I look at the VFPCOM example the EXE that is run has details on the sever page of the project. I cannot seem to get this to function for me.
