>I have created a small object in VFP to generate something based on the custom properties in the class. I created a project, added the class in a VCX to the Class Libraries, did a project build to create a "single threaded COM server (.DLL)" and it created the .DLL file for me. Now the person who wants to use it, is 4 states away and writing code in Visual Basic. He says he can't register the .DLL to access as an object in his program.

You can look at the FAQ titled "What Run-Time files do I ship with my App?" to get more information.
However, since the user already has VB, most likely you can get away with the following two files:
VFP6R.DLL - single threaded runtime DLL
VFPRENU.DLL - English language version
If you have a simple application with no ActiveX controls, etc. then this should work for you (I'll probably be burned at the stake for saying that). The VFP runtime files must be in the same directory as the DLL or in the path when Regsvr32 is run against the DLL.
HTH.
