FWIW, I wasted a lot of time trying to use CreateObjectEx() on the same computer the server was installed on. It didn't work. DCOM servers need to be called from a different computer. Also, I don't know anyone who has had success getting a DCOM server to run correctly on Windows 98. You'll need Win NT/2K if you're not already using it.
