I was thinking in terms of VFP pier-to-pier (apartment threaded?) COM. If two clients instanciate the same server, could the server be used to pass (push) a message from one of the clients to the other? I've had some experience with
languages that offer an HWND port.

I guess I am trying to understand if a server can be "aware" of the clients
holding it's object reference, and can the server direct mesaages (providing a push mechanism is in place) to a specific client.
Imagination is more important than knowledge
