Hi,

Declare Long CoInitialize in ole32 Long lpReserved
Declare Long CoUninitialize in ole32

CoInitialize(0)
...
CoUninitialize()

You must have CoUninitialize() call for each CoInitialize(). However I don't think that you should use these functions directly. COM library must be already initialized by VFP. The problem may be in COM DLL which you are using. Try to test it in VB or somethere else.

>I'm accessing a COM dll from foxpro using CREATEOBJECT(). When I use it from a form (windows application) it works find. I created a Single COM server dll (DEFINE CLASS VFPPROCESS AS CUSTOM OLEPUBLIC) so I can use it from another application. When the foxpro program get to the line where it does CREATEOBJECT I get this error:
