Hi Don,

Glad to hear you got it resolved.

FWIW, I always use the .Object qualifier when working with ActiveX/OLE objects. It helps you later decifer if the PEM belongs to the ActiveX/OLE object or the OLE Container. And as you noticed, sometimes VFP has to have it to function properly.

For Example,
ThisForm.olecontrol1.Object.RemoteHost = "192.0.0.50"
ThisForm.olecontrol1.Object.Remoteport = 1070
ThisForm.olecontorl1.Object.Connect()
