Anthony,

Sounds to me like you have a set of bizobjs processing data from the server, and another set of objects taking that data and loading it into the app. Why not compile the sql bizobj's into a COM server and let your application bizobj'S call it when needed.

If this is the case, the documentation has a good example of how to create a COM server, and what files will be necessary to be included in the project.
