>I would like to create a DLL for use on both the WEB and workstation. I would like to access it from any the WEB (don't know anything about that), or VB or VFP. How should I begin. Please let me know, since I am new to creating DLLs for other sources than VFP.

David,

It is fairly simple to create a COM DLL in VFP that can be used by other platforms, like an ASP page, or even Excel.

The VFP manual has samples on using CreateObject() with OLEPUBLIC.
There are some examples here in the UT I believe and a good one in the Fox Wiki to get you started:
