>>Unfortunately Michel, in this particular instance it is VFP that is not standard. - After some lengthy dicussions with Distinct I have found that MS have refused to take VFP 5.0s OCX compatability to same level as VB 5.0s.

Well, the problem is Microsoft......
All their ActiveX containers do not fully support the specs. So you end up with Access, VFP, C++, VB acting differently when hosting ActiveX controls !!!

As for the vendors:
The largest market is VB so they tend to ignore the other containers because it would require too much testing.
