I found the problem. It occurs when on startup, creating the following object from the COM Utility (vfpcom.dll):
This.oVFPCOM = CREATEOBJECT("VFPCOM.COMUtil")
We recompile the app in VFP 6 regularly as that is what we are currently releasing in. We will be releasing in VFP 8 around June 2005 and this came up in testing.
Is there a newer version of this that you are aware of?
