(Ref. MSDN Q259011) The DCOMTEST program pair is based on the simple DCOM sample provided with the platform SDK. In what way it is different I don't know but it is basically the same. As far as we are concerned the first stumbling block is a call to CoCreateInstanceEx with a non-null server. To get anywhere you will need to use the native ole32. -- Bill Medland ACCPAC International, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Corporate: www.accpac.com Hosted Services: www.accpaconline.com
