Hi Jeffrey,
Seems like you need a DCOM object on your server.
Basically, create the project for it, put your class in there, make your PRG a custom method in that class. If you have it as visual class mark it OLEPUBLIC (under Class menu \Class Info), mark all unnecessary PEM as Protected to reduce the exposed interface. You may use the light non-visual Session class, but then it should be created in PRG. Compile it as EXE (you will need Main.prg for that)
See this thread for more details on instantiation of DCOM:

Ask for more details after you start with it. (I am sure there will be more questions).
