I started working on VB in-process server yesterday, and was able to successfully hit the target DLL from VFP. The DLL is an interface to a data-server for data in a legacy application written in Business Basic. With the wrapper, I will be able to make the interface object-based...it needed a wrapper of some sort anyway.
Thanks for the help,
