RE: dll init with parameters
I don't recall if the a VFP COM object will run the INIT of the object. Make sure it's running by writing a text file out to the drive.

RE: dll init with parameters
Yes a dll will run the init. However it does not see the parameters. Guess that's a no go but I wondered if the class name need be a particular name of something, like main.

Re: dll init with parameters
See this link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms947579.aspx You can't use the .Init of a COM object and pass parameters. Create a new method on your object with parameters and invoke that new method after you've created your object.

This comes from a fox chat. Craig Bertson:

[21:43] {CraigBerntson} There are two things to keep in mind:
# There is a bug in VFP COM servers. if you have an error in the Init
method, the Error method won't fire
# One of the rules of COM is that you can't pass parameters to the
constructor, which in VFP is the Init method
