As it concerns COM servers, that would be correct.

Umm, I'm not sure what you mean as far as the complexity. In VFP7, the enhancements are for COM servers. You can implement interfaces (check the current MSDN for the Implements keyword in VB), define COM attributes (visibility, help string, etc.), and define data types for method parameters and return values.

To some extend, I suppose that would be true. For instance, the session class no longer exposes the default PEMs in the type library. This is useful for, say, implementing interfaces of a VFP COM server. Since you have to implement all methods of an interface, it's kind of a pain to have to have to implement methods such as ReadExpression when odds are that you won't actually do anything useful with it.
