>I am trying to insert an ole control onto one of my form. For some reason it gives me an error saying "OLE error code 0X08000800. RPC communication failed with OLE service". Does anyone know what that mean and what cause the error!! The ole control that I'm trying to insert is an FTP contoller.
I may be wrong, but this is what I think is happening. I am guessing that *.OCX files are object oriented programs with properties and methods similar to VFP. Some of the properties are accessible and modifiable only during run-time environment and cannot be determined in development/design mode. In older versions of the *.OCX files those runtime only properties were hidden from the design properties page. In the newer versions they are not hidden. My guess is so that the developers would know that those properties, in fact, do exist and that, once running, the properties can be modified by programming for different situations.

If you cannot work with the *.OCX file try an older version and re-register is using REGSVR32 (I think that's the correct program)

Any other ideas? //:^)
