Hi Jason, I've come accross this a few times as well. An object will work with .Net or ASP, but not WiTango.
WiTango needs a type library to read the methods & instances of the object, where as .Net and ASP use native Active X. Also, the COM+ should be installed on the server, and the COM+ update should be applied from Windows Update. It's not a critical update, but a recommended one. A quick & dirty way to make a type library is to run Visual Basic, or Visual C++ and access the object from there. Save the project, and VB or VC++ will create type libraries for you. You can even specify methods & Instances in VC++ for the type library, but not in VB.
