Hi Sergey,

Thanks for pointing me into the right direction. I've used implements and bound the com object event. This allowed me to
receive status messages from fired events from the COM object.

Do you know how to display a message from a COM component?

Here is what's happening.. I've created a COM Lib in VFP7 that can be
called from VFP5/6 and 7. This give me the new fox 7 implements and
eventbind features in VFP 5/6 as long as I distribute the VFP 7 run time
library.

The problem is every thing must be contained in the COM object and
I need to display messages that are returned from the COM object.
I use the WAIT WINDOW function because VFP dosn't allow me to define
windows in a COM object. The Wait Window messages are displayed
behind the current VFP screen and I have to use ALT+TAB to see the
messages. I tried to capture the current window handel but it returns
0 so I can't force the COM object to be the front window.

Got any iteas on how to bring the WAIT WINDOW message to the front?

Thanks,

Gary
