>All, first of all I know this is a VFP Form (I apologize for a VB.Net Question), I have been a VFP Developer since 1996. I am in the process of moving to VB.net and am wondering if anyone can answer or point me somewhere. I have been all over the www and can not get an answer. We have many COM Objects (Written in VFP passing record sets) running on a central Server that we connect to using CREATEOBJEX(clsid,ipaddress) in VFP. Is there a way to use these in VB.Net or do we have to re-write all our business logic data access?

Sure you can. Treat it from VB.NET as any other COM object. For more info see, for example, these two articles by Rick Strahl:
