Hmm, this version works from .PRG fine.

public lodgs
loDgs = createobject("Agent.Control.2")
loDgs.Connected = .T.
loDgs.Characters.Load("Merlin","c:\WINNT\MSAGENT\CHARS\MERLIN.ACS")
loGuy = loDgs.Characters("Merlin")
loGuy.Show()
loGuy.Speak("This is a test")

Why do you want the Agent to be a separate object?
Another idea - you can subclass the oleAgent and add it to _screen object (not tested yet)
