Hi Cetin,

Thanks for your reply.

obj = CreateObject("VisionCom.VisionComServer") gives me the "No Such Interface Supported" error.

obj = CreateObjectex("VisionCom.VisionComServer", "\\liamdesktop\", "{9DAFFDFD-1E82-43D0-A14E-0503098F47F3}") gives me a "Class not registered" error.

I can create an instance of the VisionCom server from a small Delphi program using the above GUID and get a return value from a method on the server so I know (well, pretty sure anyway) that I've created the server correctly. I'm thinking that I'm missing something additional that I need to do to allow VPF to create an instance.

I'm on the way out of the office now so if you reply and don't hear back from me, I'm not being rude - I'm just not around.

Regards,

Liam
