Error Calling a VFP Dll From VFP COM Server

Hi All.

I've been dinking around with a COM server that I wrote in Visual Foxpro 8. It works beautifully except when it gets to the part where it tries to instantiate a VFP 6.0 Dll I created. The code is quite simple in the COM server, it looks something like:

ObjDllClass = CreateObject("MyDll.MyDllClass")
IF TYPE('ObjDllClass') <> 'O' THEN
MESSAGEBOX("COULD NOT INIT DLL CLASS!")
ENDIF

When I compile this COM server and try to use I get:

OLE error code 0x80004005: Unspecified Error

I know its the line of code that is calling the CreateObject method because I've commented that line out and I do not receive the error anymore.

Is it possible that you just can't call a VFP-created dll from a VFP created COM Server?
