I am trying to get a class definition to be returned by a webservice. Before I got that far, I ran into issues with the vfp XML functions and attempting to do it within VFP.

here is my code to get the class:

FUNCTION Checkout(classname AS STRING)
SELECT * FROM c:\test\test.vcx WHERE objname == ?classname INTO CURSOR class_def
CURSORTOXML("class_def","_classdef",1,4096)
RETURN _classdef


upon getting the string back, I try to "unpack" it with xmltocursor()

XMLTOCURSOR(o.Checkout(),"NewClass" ,4096)

the class is an olebound control and it always blows up on the ole field of the xml string

Obviously I have no freaking idea what I am doing, but I do (Wayne) seem to be holding my mouth right.


Any suggestions?

Thanks!
