Claude,

these are great news!

I've tried to get the ocx to work with VFP6, gave up and made a VB EXE that receives the events from the OCX and passes them on to a VFP COM server. I always wanted to try it again with VFP7, but had no time and need.

Thanks a lot for telling us!!

>Apparently the NTSVC.ocx works well in VFP 7. It allows you to install, uninstall, start, stop, pause, continue a VFP .EXE as a service programatically. I had tried this a long time ago in VFP 6 (from the examples in VB 6) but never got it to work - chalk up another plus for VFP 7.
