>Did you registered the winsock control with VFP and drop it onto you form from the toolbar? VFP really can't host an ActiveX control natively. It needs to put it into either an OLE Bound control or an OLE container. Either way, there should be an Object property.
Yes. It's registered and it's directly on the form. I have been less than pleased with VFP's ability to use other controls. I always run into weird stuff like this. I've been devloping Foxpro applications for 10 years, but it's things like this that have caused me to do this in VB instead. As much as I love VFP, there are certain things that it just doesn't do well ...yet (hopefully) ActiveX is one of them.
