Hi Bill.

When using CreateObject you MUST have the class library included in the class libraries to be searched. This means you must included it in the Set Classlib command either before calling the exe or in the exe itself. If you are referencing the class labraries in variables rather than literals be sure it is included in the project.

I like the NewObject function much better because I can pass the class library name as the second parameter and I don't have to deal with the set classlib. If you are using the NewObject function properly, and this is failing, I suspsect there is something wrong with the class you are trying to instantiate, not the call itself. You might do a trace on it a see what happens.
