>Hi All,

>Has anyone managed to get a VFP application to access the dtSearch text search engine? I have installed dtSearch, which has a com interface, and has examples of how to access it from VB and C++. In VFP8 I can see the dtSearch text retrieval engine in the Object Browser but I cannot instantiate an instance of it. CreateObject() always returns "Class Definition not found". In the sample VB code the line to create an object is:
>
>

>Public TheEngine As dtengine.Server
>Set TheEngine = New dtengine.Server
>

>(I am not a VB programmer - code is from the provided samples).

Jos,

I do not know the product but this may help: http://support.dtsearch.com/faq/dts0124.htm

maybe you should use:

Version 6.0: CreateObject("dtSearchEngine6.Server")
or
Version 6.2: CreateObject("dtSearchEngine62.Server") && I invented this one
