Thanks Claude.

>Well, are you accessing vfp data across the network or using SQL/MSDE? These have been the primary uses for COM+ that I've seen. If these aren't requirements, then no, it probably isn't needed...

>>I've never put my COM DLL's into COM+, but have simply registered them on the server and referenced from from my ASP.NET on my app. What realistically am I losing by doing this?

>>>DCOMCNFG is something you don't need for VFP MT COM (thank god!). Use COM+ instead - here are some simple instructions that don't seem to be documented anywhere (at least for VFPers):
>>>COM + Setup Instructions for a VFPmtdll on Windows2000
>>>1.)go into Control Panel, Component Services
>>>2.)right click COM+ applications and select New.
>>>3.)going through the wizard, create an Empty Application,giving it a name, check server application, and select the appropriate account to run under.
>>>4.)After the Empty Application is created, right click on 'Components' under the newly created application.
>>>5.) select New/Component.
>>>6.) The wizard starts - select 'Import components that are already registered.'
>>>7.) select your Visual FoxPro mtdll from the list and it is added to this COM+ app.
>>>8.) right click on your COM+ application name and select 'Start'. The COM+ icon is now revolving in the Components pane.
