I always had a monolithic WIN32 exe for my desktop applications and as a result unintercepted "phd fatal error" from time to time. For my new application I suddenly discovered a conflict with certain ActiveX which makes me reconsider this approach. If I place PHDBase in separate out-of-process automation server dedicated to search only does it make any difference to separate Win32 Exe in terms of treatment for this error? I found mentioning some problems with COM in the archive , but since I never used COM myself, it is not very clear what the problem was.

TIA
